Help Please. I would like to find the burial of John Wood b. 1852 Walkley Sheffield d 1916 Sheffield also his wife Mary Ann Wood nee. Scott b1853 Intake Sheffield d 1924 Sheffield, they lived at 127 Attercliffe Road, Sheffield in 1911.
Does anyone have records for this area or do I need to visit Sheffield archives.

The death I have for John in 1916 is the wrong John. also a John wood died Sheffield 1929 this also is the wrong John.
I know that John and Mary Ann where both on the 1911 census living at 127 Attercliffe Common Sheffield. Also that Mary Ann lived at Ranskill Road Tinsley Park Sheffield in later life but cannot find her burial either.

You could ask the Sheffield archives to undertake a search of the cemeteries in Sheffield

They charge a small fee
