Neil Clark Posted 20 November , 2008 Share Posted 20 November , 2008 Blimey, what a great little resource that is! Pity other areas don't have a similar searchable database like that? Nice find Chris, it's surprising how you can sometimes stumble on cases like this whilst looking for other men. Another one coming in from the cold? Does anyone know of any other cemetery/burial databases like this one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Terry Denham Posted 22 November , 2008 Author Share Posted 22 November , 2008 That depends on which document you read. Later documents give Harlington and so that is what they have used. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
