Hi Alan,

I have some photos of Winstons Funeral and some other photos of him in Malaya also of his grave, Before Chrictmas 2 10 year old boy srayed several headstones with black paint, thi included Winstones, but I phoned the Crematorium Office about it and It had already been been cleaned by the Neighbourhood Pride Graffiti Team.
I will get your email and send the photos off to you.

I am fairly new to Genealogy and am grateful for all the help from other searches. My fathers family are proving difficult to sort out but I think I found help from your site yesterday .What I should like to Know is now I have grave references how do I work out where the numbers start .I can print off the map which gives me areas but not sure about the rest.

Hi Elaine,

Contact me with the Grave Reference and Cemetery on my email address and I will send you the Grave Plot Map, which shows the grave plan and numbers.
When you have this, you go to the Cemetery and find a headstone with a number and work from there, or count the rows down and in which will bring you to the grave. [email protected]

Take Care

I'd like to thank Peter for all his help and advice in locating the graves of my Gt Gt Grandfather Josephus Hackett, my Gt Grandmother Mary Jane Hackett (nee Wright)and my Gt Aunt Agnes Annie Hackett. His knowledge has proved invaluable and directing me to the crematorium office at Ardsley paid extra dividends. The photo's I took on my visit to Thurnscoe will be shared with my extended family and with other members of Ancestry.co.uk.

Thanks again Peter.

Regards Andrew

Hi Peter,

This is Nick from Dearne FM.

Thanks once again for taking the time to talk to us yesterday, it really was fascinating to learn about the work you're doing.

Just to let you know that clips of the interview we did will be on Dearne FM throughout the day on Saturday in the news bulletins on the hour.

I hope you get some more breakthroughs soon

Thanks

I would like to thank Peter Shields and this website for all the information and help I have had from them in finding five of my ancestors in Wombwell cemetery. The information has been invaluable and the cost of obtaining this information is extremely small given the importance of finding these plots. With many thanks, Sue

To the person who is putting the messages on about contacting the dead, please refrain from doing so, I will delete every message you put on.

Thank you

You are at it again, this site is for people who are finding love ones, not to advertise some Spiritualist or some other nutter trying to con people.

Hi, I've just used your site for the first time and in a matter of seconds found my granddads baby sister who died aged 13 months when he was 3. His mother died 2 months after having his sister & 2 days after my granddads 2nd birthday. I have being trying to find where she is buried with no success. I have spent 2 years trying to find her as my granddad is now 83 and in poor health. Her name was Doris Bradbury, she was 23 & she died in St Georges nursing home on 14/02/1930 and I cant find out where this is. At the time of her death my great granddad lived in Cudworth. Please help!
