Radlad Posted 4 January , 2019 Share Posted 4 January , 2019 Hi Jim Just emailed you Pendlebury details and asked for Bury/Atherton but realised Atherton is a mistake. Forward me the Tyldesley one as well as Bury please. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Strawbridge Posted 5 January , 2019 Author Share Posted 5 January , 2019 Not sure why Atherton is a mistake. I have a photograph of a grave there off BillionGraves but cannot use it as it will be copyright. The grave belongs to Bertha McIntosh, munition worker, who died 13th May 1917. It is in Atherton Cemetery. So if it is one that you can get I should be grateful. I cannot find what my requirement for Bury is so will leave that one. My requirement for Tyldesley is for a photograph of the grave of Mary Alice Marsh, VAD, who died on the 27th February 1919 and is buried in grave 287, row CE, plot C, Tyldesley Cemetery.

Jim Strawbridge Posted 15 January , 2019 Author Share Posted 15 January , 2019 19 hours ago, bostonwayne said: Chessington would be best CHESSINGTON - Margaret Chancellor, VAD, died 27th April 1920 in buried in St. Mary the Virgin churchyard, 4 Garrison Lane, Chessington, KT9 2LB. Just over four miles away is ESHER. From there I need a photograph of the grave of Emma Elizabeth LONG, VAD, who died in April 1919. She is buried in St. George's churchyard, Esher Park Avenue (KT10 9PX). There is a little bit about her (last item) here :- https://www.surreyinthegreatwar.org.uk/category/health-welfare/disease/?post_type=story This suggests that St. Georges churchyard was superceded by Christ Church burial ground, %a Church Street, (KT10 8QS) but Emma Long is not listed by Find A Grave, etc, so far as I can see for either place.

bostonwayne Posted 19 January , 2019 Share Posted 19 January , 2019 Searched st georges churchyard today. No sign of any graves from the 1900s at all. She must be in Christ church but I didn't have time to search there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jim Strawbridge Posted 24 January , 2019 Author Share Posted 24 January , 2019 (edited) Thank you, Wayne. As you surmised, she is one from the parish that served but lived on. She died 21st February 1952 and is buried in St. Michael and our Lady churchyard, Wragby, Wakefield (the church where the Roll of Honour is displayed).

If anyone else is going to beat me to it, please let me know. Thanks. Acknown Acknown - Thank you for the offer. One that I have had difficulty with over a number of years was finding out where Lilian Annie Stevens, VAD (died 30th November 1918) was buried. A church index of graves failed to come up with her name. Recent investigation, I think by you,suggests that she is buried in plot D16, St. Pauls cemetery, Malmesbury Road/Langley Road, Chippenham. You have mentioned in a message to me in November last year that the grave is overgrown. Find A Grave suggest that they have photographed 91% of the grave markers and Lilian's is not amongst them. Even if hers is unmarked a photograph would be welcome. The church's website states that their car park is located next to their church hall opposite the church but I cannot guarantee that it is still there as in 1915 they sought planning permission. Good luck. Edited 25 January , 2019 by Jim Strawbridge Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
