  • can anyone help with a burial query

    Hi
    I have now found the burial place of my great gran and her daughter is in the same grave but I was surprised to find out from the cemetery that it is a plot for 4
    As my g gran had very little money and we were told the plot has not been purchased so we are able to buy it, I wondered does anyone know whether this was usual in 1911 to have a plot for a family of 4 without purchasing it?
    or were the plot dug for whole families as a general rule?

    thanks for any help

    Why not ask at the Cemetery Office? They should be able to answer your question surely.

    Sorry I can't answer it though!

      Found this on a Cemetery site whilst looking for something else. Hope it helps.

      "Unpurchased graves


      Unpurchased graves represent the least expensive burial option; all you pay for is the funeral.

      The grave itself remains our property however and we may use it to bury other people who want an unpurchased grave.

      Please note you will not be allowed to place a memorial on an unpurchased grave and you should not expect to be able to bury another relative in the same grave."
