Hi Iris,

Sorry nothing coming up with that name. Having said that the data base holds details of all re-used graves.

If you take a look at that website, their contact details are there. You could always ring or e-mail them.

The only results for Bennett are two graves. The last burial in one was 1854 and the other was 1879, but nothing for Grace.

Sorry Where is Norwood.
Would there be any Family History Societies in that area that would have Mi's. Find my Past has Death and Burial Records.

Norwood Cementery in 1888. What are the chances of the grave
still being there and who would I need to contact to find out about
what area it could be in
