This is the one I've been waiting for! I've already found my maternal grandparents, great grandparents and an aunt. But I knew they were there - there are probably many more too.
Off to look for more

Well I sort of knew where she was I was at the funeral but I was only 14 and it was a bit of a blur and also knew my uncles were close by but didn't have much documentation to be honest and the graves aren't marked - they are common graves. I could have asked for a burial search at Manor Park but never have to many to ask for its £5 a search - there are about 25 I am interested in - so I am happy that I now have some documentation that I can pass onto her other grandchildren who keep asking me "where is she buried".

I knew nothing about this site and have found my fathers baby sister who was buried in Manor Park in 1914 and his brother who was buried there in 1954.

I know that they were poor but was astonished to find that there were 24 other people(babies?) in the 1914 grave buried between July & October. It sounds morbid but how would that work in practice. Would this have been one large paupers grave that kept being reopened. So much importance was placed on a proper burial that surely the family would have attended the burial even if they had no money.

Even more surprising was the brother in 1954 was buried with five others who all had different surnames, non of which I recognied from my tree. He was married with children. Is it likely this also might have been a paupers grave?

Does anyone have any thoughts or advice that would clarify this for me?

Thank you

They have now completed Manor Park Cemetery (East London) by adding records for the period 25th March 1875 to 15th December 1898.
