Oooh, I just found the burial for OH's 3xg-grandfather in the Greater London Burial Index after a 20 year wait and a ten second search! No doubt more of his family will appear, so I should be kept out of trouble today!

Thanks Kate.

There's only 4 cemetaries listed for Birmingham so couldn't find anyone.

I've found my 4x Gt Grandmother's burial in the City of London Burials 1754-1855.
However it doesn't say where she was buried! The parish is given as Christ Church, Spitalfields but I am fairly certain that she's not buried there unless Ancestry have updated their records since my sub ran out, so it's probably just a reference to her address.

Is there any information on this database that might help me pin down the cemetery? FMP doesn't seem to have anything that I can see.
