It's certainly different! Was it cheaper to bury more people in one plot? Although it must surely have been a bigger than normal plot originally?

I can't find any of mine in the new records - even the ones that died in West Ham! I think our family favoured Manor Park.

Blimey most of OH ancestors are in West Ham

I put in one name in a family and up they all pop in family graves.

I have now found over 14 burials and cremations there will be more.

I told OH and as is usual his expression was 'oh really' and then quickly scurried off I think he could see what I was thinking...

A day out in West Ham

I don't usually find anything I think over the last few years I have found 3 because it was St Pancras. Like Sue most of my family favoured Manor Park and also Chingford and Woodgrange.

But these were all for OH and were family graves so once I found one I found a lot more although I found a few on their own the total by the time I decided to stop was 22. I even found a couple of spinster Aunts born in early 1800s buried with neices and sometimes nephews.

All records for the five cemeteries and one crematorium managed by Cheshire West and Chester Council in North West England are included on the Deceased Online website.
Of the total 185,000 records, over 65% are available immediately. The only outstanding data are pre-1953 records for Overleigh Cemetery and these should be completed by early Spring.

Default Eltham Crematorium SE London - Deceased Online

Just received an email which says:

All 210,000 records for one of London's biggest and busiest crematoria are now available.
As one of the Capital's largest cremation facilities, it services a large part of South East London including two London Borough areas, Bexley and Greenwich, together with the Dartford area in North West Kent.
