Angus, Scotland Burial Records Go Online

Saturday September 19, 2009

Almot 200,000 Scottish burial records, dating from the 1800s, are now available online through a partnership between Angus Council and Deceased Online. The burial records of all lairs in over 75 cemeteries managed by Angus Council are available for online searching and viewing, along with maps showing the exact location of the graves, and digital images of the headstones (where available).

Deceased Online is a central online database of statutory burial and cremation registers for the UK and Republic of Ireland, and currently includes burial records from several London boroughs, the Kent & Sussex Crematorium and Tunbridge Wells Borough in addition to the newly added records from Angus, Scotland. Searches are free and offer basic information. Additional information associated with the found records, including transcriptions or digital scans of burial and cremation register entries, grave details, photos of graves, and maps of grave locations, is available on a pay-per-view basis.

I have tried a number of deaths to see where the person in buried. I have exact dates when and where died but there is no mention of where they are buried. Dennis Fraser
