can any one help please bacardi xx

Hi Bacardi, If you change the thread title to include Blaby, Leicestershire then it may catch the eye of someone who lives there or nearby. I would change it to ' Can any one visit Blaby Cemetery Please' Julie

many thanks for the tip julie bacardi xx

This link may help. The Leicestershire Villages web site contains a section for every village in the County, some have a lot more info than others. The Blaby one contains a list of burials in Blaby Cemetary from 1863 to 1972. But be aware that Blaby is also a Registration District and the district of Blaby will contain numerous villages and cemetaries. http://www.leicestershirevillages(.)com/blaby/blabycemeteryburials.html remove the brackets Paul ps note correct spelling of Leicester pps there are no Rodds listed.

many thanks paul the family were originaly from islington but move to liecester.so perhaps they are buried in there home town will keep looking bacardi xxx

Hi again, The Leicestershire Villages site for Enderby also has listings of births, marriages and deaths from the parish registers, although they are incomplete at the moment. You will need to follow the links to the Enderby Heritage Group. Anybody researching ancestors from villages in Leicestershire should have a look at the Leicestershire Villages site. You never know what you may find. All of this can be readily found by using Google. Paul

many thanks for all your suggestions had email back today from blaby and there are no rodds buried there. will keep searching bacardi xx
