Thank you 'slowhands' for your help and guidance...at present I haven't got any more details on where she was living at time of death. I ordered a death cert but it never arrived so after much to-ing and fro-ing with records office, i have had to start from scratch and order again. I only know it listed death as Forest of Dean....
Best wishes

Do you have a feel for where she was living - relatives, nursing home etc ?

Perhaps with Thomas - in Westbury on Severn?

Still looking for information on burial location of Elsie May Humphries (born Cory) 1893-1993, died aged 99in Forest of Dean district. is there any way of locating her final resting place? also, would love to hear from any descendants of Tom and Elsie Humphries who lived in the area from 1930s onwards. Thomas's parents were Walter and Sarah, and his siblings were also Sarah and Sidney. All family members are noted as born in Westbury on Severn and recorded at The Noards in 1901 census...As both Tom and Elsie remained in the Gloucestershire area until their deaths (Elsie was from Dalton in Furness in Cumbria, and that's where they married and my gran was born), Im sure that there are some relatives to make contact with...
Many thanks...
MandyH
great grand-daughter of Tom and Elsie Humphries

Trying to find correct place of burial

MandyH — Sun, 24 Oct 2010 12:19:01 +0000

I hope you might be able to help...I am trying to find the location of my great grandfather's grave. His name is Thomas Humphries (husband of Elsie 1893-1992) He died in St Mary's hospital in 1955 aged 67 but is shown as being buried in Westbury on Severn parish - I have a reference to a vicar Fred Proctor, officiating and a parish reference of P354 IN 1/36, soundex H516..but i do not know how to translate this into a parish church.
Also, I haven't been able to get a copy of my great grandmother's (Elsie Humphries nee Cory) death certicate yet, but know that she died in FOrest of Dean district in June 1992...is there any way of finding her grave easily?

Many thanks...
