as is the entire Hartnell clan. :-|

I have been trying to find my greatgrandmothers headstone for years, but no
one has been able to find it. Just recently the record office sent me this;

Holy Trinity Horfield
Edith Mona Hartnell
March 19th 1910
age 31
6 Princess Street
K.P.Bannister performed the ceremony.

Do you think this is enough information for someone too find her, or do I need more information?

Researching:
Oxfordshire, Devon, Somerset, Gloucestershire etc.

RMS

Try this website for the Church. It gives information on where Burial records prior to 1964 are now kept + a link to that site

Best of Luck ;-)

Yes, there was aa headstone, when my dad was a teenager, but that was a few years ago. :-)

I had already have written to the church and they send me to the records office cause that is where all their records are. :-(

So in other words, The curse of the Hartnells strikes again :-|

Headstones do get removed, and the plots re-used!
