You can pay for a search of the local authority cemeteries, but you have to have the death certificate first. If you are in the locality, libraries often have burial records on film. Then there are parish records for the various churches adn again you can trawl through them. But if you are trying to do it from a distance i don't know how you would go about it. You'd have to find somome willing to look for you. This of course is why sites like this are good! Barbara

Hi Kevin My local cemetery is very useful. They have a list of everyone buried there, as long as I can give them the persons full name, the date they died and the address were they died at they will do a look up for me. Karen

After exhausting the National Burials Index and the Monumental Insciption index, is there another way for finding where an ancestor is buried. For example do individual cemetries have indexes or records on who is buried in them.
