Tetley,

Streatham Vale Cemetery (sic) is another possibility.

Hi Jacqueline

Thank you for the address and telephone number. I'm glad PigletsPal warned me about Wandsworth. That would have really put me off.

Regards

Try Lambeth Libraries - their local studies should be able to advise, too. Hopefully in a less surly manner than Wandsworth council. Poor PigletsPal to be on the receiving end.

Two cemetaries I know of that are local possibilities to Brixton, are Streatham Cemetaries. One is on Garrett Lane that is near Tooting (SE London) Tel 02087642255 and the other around Mitcham (SE London) Tel: 0208684 3877. When I tried to locate my grandmother's burial site, they were really helpful and sympathetic, replying to my enquiry within hours.

Good luck

Could someone advise me please.

I have a relative died between 1950-1960 at Brixton. Could someone with knowledge of Brixton please tell me which Cemetary I should be looking at.

Thanks Tetley
