125,000+ records of grave removals

TheGenealogist has added more than 125,000 copies of records from certain local authorities and the Church Commissioners that relate to the removal of graves and tombstones in burial grounds. These records are held by The National Archives and are now incorporated in TheGenealogist’s Headstone Collection.

They detail former cemeteries from all over England and Wales and cover the years 1619 to 2003. A number contain a plan of the original place of burial while some will reveal the place of reinterment also.
