Jan Just to clarify.. I was looking for people with a particular surname, who died from c. 1860s onward.... not recently deceased, so was surprised that it still came under bereavement services. Gwyn

There was a thread not too long ago about a charity? on Southampton Common willing to do lookups in local cemetery records for a small donation. I have had excellent help in the past from The Bereavement Services in Bugle Street, Southampton who hold computerised records for Southampton cemeteries. Gwyn
