Replied off-list ----- Original Message ---- From: Charles Sidebottom <sidebc1@comcast.net> To: LEICESTERSHIRE-PLUS@rootsweb.com Sent: Monday, 28 January, 2008 7:50:38 PM Subject: [LEI] PADLEY burial information Now that we are nearly one month into 2008, I hope the new year is going well for all listers. I recently became aware (by reading list postings) that there is something called the National Burial Index. I am wondering if anyone who has access could do a few look-ups for me, please. Maybe I will get lucky with a brick wall! My great grandmother, Mary Ann PADLEY (nee Tindall), died in Hugglescote/Coalville, Leicestershire on 21 Oct 1882. The death was registered 31 Oct 1882. I have the death certificate; but I want to know where she was buried. The Padleys were a poor family. I doubt there was money for a burial with any kind of monument. Still, she has to be buried somewhere. Mary Ann also had two daughters buried in the Leicestershire area within a few years of Mary Ann's death. They were: Phoebe PADLEY, age 4, died 24 Mar 1876 at Whiteleys, Hugglescote, Leicestershire. The death was registered 25 Mar 1876. Emma PADLEY, age 19, died 24 Mar 1884 at Chester's Row, Swannington, Leicestershire. The death was registered 24 Mar 1884. As with their mother, I doubt that there were funds for a burial with a monument for either of the daughters; yet I would like to know where these girls are buried. Hopefully, someone on the list holds the key to unlocking this mystery. Thanks loads, Carolyn in Minnesota USA
