    1. [YORKSGEN] Linthorpe Cemetery

    3. I have just been reading through some old documents one being the Right of Burial deed purchased by my grandmother. Presumably when my grandfather died she bought a double plot so it gives the date of burial and the plot number. I have looked through a lot of websites re Linthorpe Cemetery in Middlesbrough but have been able to find no mention of his grave. Am I right to assume that there was no headstone. I have a plot number. is there anyone who can tell me where this might be in the cemetery He was Francis Joseph LEACH buried 15 Jul 1930 and the plot number is 10662C. my grandmother never used the plot - when she died in 1968 she was cremated. It does say that her heirs have the exclusive right of burial in perpetuity so presumably if any of our family end up in Middlesbrough we could still take up that grave? Thanks in advance for any help Denise

    3. I found the cemetery office very helpful when looking for my Great Great Grandparents' graves. I think they gave me photocopies of plans of the area where they were buried. Unfortunately both in paupers' graves that only a few yards apart and both unmarked.
