    3. Anne, The St James burial ground on Hampstead Road belonged the parish of St James Westminster. It was not located within Westminster itself, but in St Pancras. It is sometimes referred to as St James Camden Town. FamilySearch doesn't identify the burial ground as such, but there's a good chance that a burial in 1835 listed as St James Westminster would be at this Hampstead Road ground, rather than in Westminster itself. This burial register is not on Ancestry. There are bishops' transcripts for St James Westminster (aka St James Piccadilly) 1813-1833, but unfortunately not for 1835, the year you need. To get a copy of the entry in the burial register you will need to send GBP 4.00 to Westminster City Archives and provide the name, exact date and the parish. If you email them first, they will explain how you can do this by credit card. You should appreciate, though, that the only additional information in the register is likely to be the "abode". It may be the street, or it may be just the name of the parish (St Pancras, St Marylebone, or whatever). http://www.westminster.gov.uk/services/libraries/archives/family-history / HTH Judy London, UK -----Original Message----- From: middlesex_county_uk-bounces@rootsweb.com [mailto:middlesex_county_uk-bounces@rootsweb.com] On Behalf Of Anne Chapman Hi Listers, I wonder if one of you wonderful people could point me in the right direction to finding the actual record of this death/burial. These details have been sent to me by my cousin, to see if I could find them. Swithin Horne & his wife Eliza Matthews lived at 9 Munster Street, Regents Park, at the time their daughter, Sarah was born. On the Greenwood's map of 1827, there is a St James Burial Ground to the right on my printed map -- maybe this should be East of Munster Street (now no longer there) Firstly, can someone confirm if this St James Burial Ground would be classed as Westminster at the time? If not. can someone tell me where that St James, Westminister, would be? Secondly, I have looked at Ancestry England Deaths & Burials and cannot now find how we used to go to the records of the actual churches, H E L P Thirdly, Is this one of the churches, that is not handled by Ancestry? In 1842 Swithin purchased a Grave plot at Kensal Green Cemetery which has Swithin, Eliza, three of their sons plus Eliza's mother, Sarah Matthews, (widowed wife of James Matthews). These 6 were buried between 1842 and 1886. There is a headstone in the form of a rectangular box which has been found, with huge rejoicing. Sorry for this being long, but wanted to give you all relevant details. We are just hoping this is her, and we have finally found the last of the children. Thanking you very much for any help you can give me.
