City of London and Tower Hamlets Cemetery Registers

These were updated on Friday and I have found five direct line burials today. Well worth a look if you have missing ancestors in that area

Yes it does say updated, but I've never seen them on Ancestry before so I think its likely to be a mistake unless they updated them immediately they were launched.

That said, I've found fourteen direct line ancestors buried there and several of their siblings.

Oh wow! My great great grandparents are there with their infant son Frank, thanks for the tip off Sue

Well I wondered whether I'd actually seen them before too but put it down to my dreadful memory

I haven't even started looking for extended family on this database yet - could take a while!

Thanks for the tip. With just a quick look I've found my gg-grandfather, so now I need to get organised to see what other burials I'm missing from that area. It's bound to be a lot!
