Hi
I am trying to find out where a relative of mine is buried. His name is Bert R Greatrex born July/aug/Sept 1918 and died Mar 1924 age 5 or 6. The Family came from Aston in Birmingham I checked Key Hill and warstone lane but no good, i have checked all the Cemetery's. I checked for cremation, I have been to the library but deaths for what i wanted were not on film. I am thinking perhaps he may have been buried in a church yard. My Nan lived in New John Street West, Aston at the time i believe,( I don't know if there is anyway to confirm this.) I am going to try St Georges to see if they hold any records for the old church. I am turning grey very fast and climbing the wall. So is there anyone out there that can help.

Many thanks Stars

Stars, I wonder if this could be a connection?

I have found a death for the June Quarter of 1920

Greatrex Bert C Birmingham 6d 413..This Bert was aged 21 years..If this Bert has a family connection maybe the two Berts are buried in the same cemetery..

Both Aston and Birmingham are in the county of Warwickshire..

The death cert is the best option..It will confirm whether your Nan did live in John St at the time or not..Then we can take it from there..

When you get all the details of the death you could try this site:

Cemeteries and Crematoria Contact Details - Birmingham City Council

I also believe Birmingham library has burial records

The Birmingham & Midland Society of Genealogy have transcribed some Cemeteries records and plot numbers. so you could try them as well
