Since Ryde Cemetery records on the Internet may have come as news to some recently, please let me add that the burial records of Northwood Cemetery, Cowes (not to be confused with Northwood St John CHURCHYARD) are also on-line at www.friendsofnorthwoodcemetery.org.uk. All details held in the Burial Registers have now been transcribed (1856-2008) and we are beginning to populate the records with: Obituaries (usually from the Isle of Wight County Press); Pictures of the deceased in their lifetime; Photographs of Headstones; and Family Notes A peek at my great uncle (MATTHEWS 1928) will give you a glimpse of this extra material. Bear in mind that the quantity of these is very sparse at the moment - and any contributions would be most welcome. If anyone would like to become a Friend of Northwood Cemetery, please contact me off-list. Regards to all, Jon Matthews Friends of Northwood Cemetery
