Dea and Janet

Could be Brooklands I suppose as the British Library Newpaper index uses OCR software so sometimes produces 'gobbleydegoook'.

The family lived in Royds Street, off Stockport Road, Manchester which is miles away from Sale, Cheshire. And he died whilst on holiday in Morecambe!

The original entry in the Manchester Evening News would clarify.

Looking at the list of all Manchester Cemeteries there is nothing similar to your information. Could it be
Sale (Brooklands) Cemetery

Marsland Road, Sale

15 Sep 1862

Still Open

Records at Altrincham Lawn-jl

The index to Manchester Eveniung News says George Dixon husband of Sarah died 31 Aug 1902 and is buried BrockWnds Cemetery?
Does anyone have access to this newspaper death announcement so I can find out where George is buried?
