I think you need firstly to establish when he died........and where. It may be that it was somewhere other than the area in which he actually lived......... Reg

They didn't necessarily lie...........perhaps they were just confused............mixed up his funeral with someone else's Reg

Hi,my g grandparents told my mum that they went to my gg grandfathers funeral and that he was buried at Stanton Road cemetery ,however I have contacted the Stanton road cemetery and the man sent me a letter saying no records at all ?I paid £5.00 to join the friends of Stanton Road Cemetery ,Ilkeston,Derbyshire so I could find out but he insists that my gg grandfather is not there.I telephoned the cemeterys in Nottingham and Derbyshire but they say I will have to pay £25.00 for a search now of all the cemeterys in the area but why would my g grandmother lie about a funeral?Very strange ,dont you think?Suz. Is there anyone who can find where William Nunn born 1843 Ipswich Suffolk is buried ?he died at Ilkeston,Derbyshire abt 1920 I think.
