I'm still looking for the burial place of Julia Margaret Weaver, who died in Germany 7th February 1871.

She was known as Baroness Von Lippeworth, lady in waiting to Princess Elisabeth in Heidleburg.

Can someone have a quick look and se if her death is on Ancestry, please.

Nothing obvious on ancestry or FamilySearch. What religion was she, Libby?

I don't really know. The family religion was mixed between CofE, Baptist, Methodist and possibly others. I would assume she would attend services at whatever church the Princess used. She was only a little over ten years older than her, so maybe more of a friend. I'm not sure how many staff are given the title of baroness.

I tried FMP but nothing comes up.

Googling only gives the 2 notices in Trove but I figure you have seen them already

Yes thanks Toni.

I don't suppose anyone knows if she would have a death certificate in Germany....and how I'd get it. I can't work it out.

Shona said on your old thread that "If Julia died in 1871 in Heidelberg, this was before civil registration began in Baden-Württemberg."

Yes, sorry, I meant whatever they called parish records. I'm sure there must be some record of her death. Just no idea where.

That's why I was asking what religion she was, because her burial would be listed in the records of whichever denomination she was buried by. Ancestry does have some Lutheran Heidelberg records indexed but she doesn't come up in those. I suppose you could find a paid researcher in the Heidelberg area to have a look?
