      Thank you Pat, entirely in your own time is perfectly fine by me Pat. I'm a Mancunian too but don't live there and I haven't a clue where the Manchester general cemetery is either. Only know Philips Park as that's where most of my lot are burried.

      Thanks to Angelina on the research thread, I've found about 18 of mine but please don't panic....15 of them are at Philips Park lol!

      If you don't mind I will pm you the details.....of the rellies and grave no's etc. What I mainly want is to find out who, if any other members of family may be burried in those graves too.

      Many thanks Pat.

        Hello,

        Just in case you haven't found out the location of Manchester General Cemetery it is located on Rochdale Road, Harpurhey.

        This link is to the council guide http://www.manchester.gov.uk/info/32...d_crematoria/1

          Many thanks GJL, that's very close to where my brother lives. Can't for the life of me think why neither of us knew where it was, as we both grew up in that area. Most of our rellies are burried at Philips Park cemetery..........that's my only excuse. We never had to look anywhere else.

            they are totally lost ,does anyone know of Epidemics or disasters that took place in Manchester? their son was b 1861 and was living with Georges sister in 1881 I'm taking it they have died .thanks Catherine

                Oh Hi there, I had completely forgotten about this thread.
                I did discover that my paternal grandfather is burried there and at least one of two daughters that were lost as babies, tho they are not in the same grave sadly. Thank you for asking.

                  Well if you need further help with any family buried there let me know the details as i have done a fair bit of research on that & other cemeteries in the Manchester area.
