---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Margaret Usmar <margaretusmar@gmail.com> Date: Jun 15, 2007 2:35 PM Subject: Cemetery To: HAMPSHIRE-LIFE-@rootsweb.com Has Winchester ever had a dedicated cemetery for Roman Catholic burials, or just a section in a cemetery serving the city? Some of my RC ancestors pre-date the Catholic Emancipation Act so any advice would be welcome. I have to confess to never knowing the whereabouts of any cemetery when I lived in Winchester. Thank you again. Margaret

there is a cemetery that I believe was dedicated to Roman Catholic burials it is in Romsey Road just below the hospital. I think it is known as Westhill Cemetery. regards Jill ----- Original Message ----- From: "Margaret Usmar" <margaretusmar@gmail.com> To: <HAMPSHIRE-LIFE-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Friday, June 15, 2007 2:36 PM Subject: [HAMPSHIRE-LIFE] Fwd: Cemetery > ---------- Forwarded message ---------- > From: Margaret Usmar <margaretusmar@gmail.com> > Date: Jun 15, 2007 2:35 PM > Subject: Cemetery > To: HAMPSHIRE-LIFE-@rootsweb.com > > Has Winchester ever had a dedicated cemetery for Roman Catholic burials, > or > just a section in a cemetery serving the city?
