I live in Western Australia, where Henry and Charlotte son Leonard immigrated. I am currently in Barcelona, Spain on holidays. I will be in Nottingham in a couple of weeks. I have limited access to WiFi. What I know: Henry Henson was the son of Stephen Henson and Mary Ann Bailey. He died 24 August 1894 age 46, Nottingham. Charlotte Henson nee Watson was the daughter of Charles Watson and Charlotte Hodgkinson. She died 4 February 1891 age 38. I have both their death certificates. I want to know where they are buried. I have contacted the Nottingham Archives, General cemetery of Nottingham, Nottingham City Council, Nottingham Family Society and members of Ancestry and Genes. No one has been able to help. PLEASE REMEMBER while travelling I have limited access to WiFi and may not be able to respond immedaitely.Appreciate any help. |

What address is on the death certificates, and have you looked for the nearest cemeteries to that place? |

Hi Mark in most cases I have over the last 10 months got automatic responses such as : you need to come in and search to you need to obtain certificates which I already had and had advised them this. I seem to have been passed from one authority or group to another. I appreciate everyone is busy and these authorities and groups must get many enquiries. My hope was to visit their final resting places as I am the first family member to visit Nottingham since 1923. |

Hi ... I suggest you try the Nottingham Council 'Local Studies' unit - I have been helped with similar enquiry at another Council...and received excellent service. |

FYI to everyone who assisted me. I have returned from visiting Nottingham and located Charlotte's burial. She and a son who died young are buried together in the General cemetery. Spent time in the Archives office still unable to find Henry's place of burial. Again I appreciate everyone's advice and guidance. |
