Margaret Report 6 Aug 2014 22:00

This is an appeal on behalf of my elderly neighbour who has expressed a desire to visit her parents grave.

Unfortunately, she doesn't remember when her parents died but thinks it would've been at least 40 years ago probably more.

William Ollerenshaw was her dad and was born in the Lancashire area I think, he later married Ruth ? and there were 2 girls Muriel and Joan, Joan being the eldest of the two, there was also a stepsister Margaret.

The parents Wm and Ruth are buried at Carnforth, Lancs and I'm trying to find the grave for her, we don't think there is a headstone so that makes things abit harder, without a death date I have nothing to go on when approaching the council's cemetery's dept.

Please if anybody could help I'm certain Muriel wold be thrilled to bits, she's 86 now and Joan lives away in Aberdeen so any help for them would be much appreciated.

Thanks you all very much
