Hi. Just a quick question. Where would someone be buried in 1911 who died at Chester St., Leicester? I believe the parish was St Matthews at that time. Many thanks. Michael
Sorry Michael I just could not resist By 1900 most burials were in cemeteries rather than Church yards I would try Welford Road first, Gilroes next I think the LFHS has indexes for some and perhaps others may be able to help you there Or contact <http://www.leicester.gov.uk/your-council-services/cl/bereavement/cemeteriesandcrematorium/> But that is likely to be expensive, others may know better on that score Nivard Ovington in Cornwall (UK) On 13/03/2014 11:52, Michael Sutcliffe wrote: > Hi. > Just a quick question. > Where would someone be buried in 1911 who died at Chester St., Leicester?

Hi Nivard I supposed I asked for that. Thanks for suggestion, I had a thought that it might be Welford Road, hadn't thought off Gilrose.
