Can anyone shed any light on one John CULLEN for me? He appears on the headstone of my wife's g-grandparents in Canley cemetery, Coventry: In Loving Memory A Dear Mum NELLIE AGNES MORGAN Died 11 Feb 1958 Aged 67 Years Also her husband HARRY MORGAN Died 16 Jan 1962 Aged 79 years A Dear Husband JOHN CULLEN Died 30 Dec 2003 Aged 82 Years Loved too much in life to be forgotten in death We are intrigued to learn more about John as we have no reference to the surname CULLEN anywhere within my wife's known MORGAN ancestry and the name rings no bells with current members of the family. If anyone can offer any information please reply off list to maintain confidentiality. Many thanks in anticipation of any help. Best regards.

Hello Ian Not sure whether this will help but back in my family in the 1930's there was an unconnected burial in a family grave. My mother told me that a neighbour who was poor had asked my great-grandmother to bury her child in her family grave. Maybe check the Electoral Register for the area. The time difference of 40 years may not support this theory. Can you trace CULLEN's home back from 2003 back to 1962? Was he single? Was he a witness to a wedding or a godparent? I've not explored this route but who paid for his burial? - records at the cemetery?/ with the funeral director?

Hi Ian The GRO Marriage Index... from Ancestry... gives a marriage between John Cullen & Tania M. Morgan in August 1995 in Nuneaton & Bedworth..... rather a late marriage, but it's the only cross referenced one ...
