Romford Cemetery, Essex now onlineAll 39,400 burial records for Romford Cemetery in Essex are now available on the Deceased Online website. Digitised burial register scans for the period 27 October 1871 to 15 August 1994, and computerised records thereafter, include details such as occupation and/or marital status, age, place of death and grave number. Grave details for all interments are also available.

Thank you -- I have just found my great-great-grandparents' burials in Romford at the site, 1899 and 1905, at 79 and 74, pretty long-lived for their day.

London Borough of Newham, West Ham Cemetery, Cemetery Road, Forest Gate, London, E7 9DG.

Approximately 180,000 burial records are available for the London Borough of Newham, West Ham Cemetery, East London.

The data available comprise computerised index records, details of graves including names of all those buried in each grave, and cemetery section maps to locate graves.

only the index records are available, and not the full burial register records, as these were irrecoverably damaged due to flooding.

All records for the five cemeteries and one crematorium managed by Cheshire West and Chester Council in North West England are included on the Deceased Online website.
Of the total 185,000 records, over 65% are available immediately. The only outstanding data are pre-1953 records for Overleigh Cemetery and these should be completed by early Spring.
Records date back to 1850 and feature many interesting burials and memorials. They include nearly 500 Commonwealth war graves in Blacon Cemetery with graves of military personnel from Canada, Australia, New Zealand and other Commonwealth and European countries.
The data include computerised records, digital scans of registers and grave details showing all burials within each grave and maps showing the sections where the graves are located within the cemetery. (See database coverage on www.deceasedonline.com for full details).

Hi, thanks for the links Janet. I think some of my Peterhead ancestors may be on there.

Isn't the Cheshire Overleigh database on Cheshire Record office site already? (free to use) I found a few relatives here:

Burial records for picturesque rural English area
added to Deceased Online

Over 16,000 burial records for two cemeteries managed by Cotswold District Council are now available on Deceased Online
Chesterton Cemetery, opened 1872, is located in the 'Cotswold capital' Cirencester and Stratton Cemetery (in Stratton, just outside Cirencester) has records from 1888. All records for both cemeteries are available
The records comprise digital scans of burial registers, details of graves and maps indicating the locations of many of the graves
Cotswold District Council is a large area serving a region that stretches from Chipping Campden in the north down to Tetbury in the south west and covering towns such as Moreton-in-Marsh, Bourton and Stow-on-the-Wold

also Chester West and Chester City

Extensive data available in 210,000 records
for Eltham Crematorium

All 210,000 records for one of London's biggest and busiest crematoria are now available on www.deceasedonline.com
As one of the Capital's largest cremation facilities, it services a large part of South East London including two London Borough areas, Bexley and Greenwich, together with the Dartford area in North West Kent
The records for Eltham comprise the most comprehensive range that Deceased Online has ever included for a crematorium
Digital scans of cremation registers typically include: name, address, marital status, cremation number, date of cremation, date of death, age, sex, denomination, occupation, applicant and death registration details
In addition, for the first time we have included the map locations of ashes scattered or buried in the Crematorium grounds (where available)
There are now nearly 1.5 million records for London on Deceased Online together with records for nearby Tunbridge Wells Cemetery and Kent & Sussex Crematorium

Thank you for giving the details for what is on the register scan at Eltham. As 6 of our grandparents (his and mine) were cremated there, I wondered if it was worth splashing the cash. ;-)

I have bought images of the burial registers for some on my tree from Islington

its good for addresses etc if you are not sure, the credits are not too expensive

sounds like the Eltham records are pretty omprehensive

33,000 more burial records for
the City of Aberdeen May 2012

I'm delighted to inform you that we've just added more burial records to the Deceased Online website for Scotland's third city, Aberdeen.

The key features are:

A little under 33,000 burial records dating between January 1830 and November 1904 for St Peter's Churchyard in Aberdeen
We already have 105,000 burial records for this old Aberdeen churchyard (and later cemetery) so the total number of records available is now approximately 138,000. We estimate that there are at least 10,000 more burial records for St Peter's and we hope to have these on Deceased Online soon
There are now nearly 232,000 burial records for Aberdeen City on Deceased Online
The latest records comprise burial register scans and grave details
Within the next 2-3 months, we will be adding cemetery section maps for St Peter's which indicate the section of the cemetery where graves are located
