I am trying to find where my 3x-great-grandmother, Dorothy ELLIOTT, is buried.
She died on 31 May, 1870 at Worston near Yealmpton. The burial records for the Parish of Yealmpton state that she was buried on 5 June, 1870.
I have checked with St. Bartholomews's Church in Yealmpton and they have no record of the burial.
I am now thinking that she may be buried in one of the municiple cemeteries in Plymouth.
Ford Park Cemetery would appear to be a likely candidate, given that it opened in 1848. However, I have not found it easy to find out when the other cemeteries in Plymouth opened, so are there other cemeteries I should check?
I am also trying to find the place of burial for her daughter Ann GERRY (d. 1890) and son-in-law James GERRY (d. 1886), whom I believe Dorothy was living with at the time of her death.
Dorothy's son, his wives, and his son are buried at St. Mary and All Saints Church (see my previous message), but she does not appear to be buried there.
Many thanks.
Kind regards
Eric
