Loaninghill Cemetery Uphall ~ Photograph Wanted PleaseHello
A few years ago a wonderful volunteer helped with my request in taking some photos of my mum's final resting place in Loaninghill Cemetery in Uphall West Lothian. I was so grateful as i now live in New Zealand.Sadly last year i lost my brother who has been laid to rest beside our mum. I organised a lovely slate memorial for him and it was placed at the gravesite on the day of the funeral. I have no family members in Scotland who can help me get a photo showing my brother's memorial ~ i am so far away and would be very grateful if someone could perhaps help with my request.
Many Thanks

HELEN TURNERI am writing to say a huge thank you for all the wonderful work you do. I put out a request for a photo of my mum's gravesite, as i now live abroad and can no longer visit. A wonderful volunteer called Michelle got in touch with me, and supplied me with not one but six lovely photos!! This means so much to me. Having the photos now means that i am able in my own way to visit my mum's grave. Her kindness in undertaking my request touched my heart.
HELEN TURNERHi
I hope someone can help with my request. I am looking to see if i can get a photograph of my mum's gravesite.
Her name is Helen Turner and she is buried in Loaninghill cemetery in Uphall, west Lothian, Scotland.
I do not have a grave number, but her grave can be located by walking into the front gate and following the path to your right. Walk around until you are at the top of the cemetery, my mum's grave is located on the left hand side.
She was 49 years old and passed away in december 1993. Her grave has a garden ornament of a st.bernard dog placed on it.
I really do hope someone can help, it would mean a great deal to me, as i now live overseas and am unable to visit in person.
Many Thanks.
I could try to do this for you at some point, as I am relatively near here, but it would need to be when I'm on holiday in July if that's OK? It's a bit of an awkward place to get to on the weekends, as the buses don't run frequently, or at all on a Sunday, so I could do it for you then? If that's OK, let me know.

Alfred TurnerCharles,
Thank You so much for sending me the picture of Alfred Turner's Headstone. I am still not sure if there is any connection to John Turner b@1772 but I am hoping. I am so thankful for the help as I can't search in the area myself.
Thank youThanks very much for the images of Philip Turner's grave, especially for the speedy response. What a great service.
Very prompt and helpfulThanks so much for access to the details on this headstone. These details vary from the parish burial record. Very puzzling!
I am trying to trace the origin of my ancestor, Thomas Turner, who was last confirmed residing in West Wretham, Norfolk, in the early 1800's. His wife, Elizabeth Tuffs, came originally from South Pickenham. Thomas had been the Warrener at Bromehill Warren on the Weeting Estate and Elizabeth had worked in the manor at Weeting Hall. They married in 1778.
There is an 1836-37 Register of the Electors for the Western Division that records a Thomas Turner living at Thorpe Farm, West Wretham. I have long assumed that this must be the same Thomas Turner that moved there with his wife and family about 1790 from Weeting. After all, how many Thomas Turners would move to a place with only a handful of residences? However, I have never been able to find a record of burial for either Thomas, or his wife Elizabeth, in Wretham or any where near by.
One theory is that the parents had gone to live with their children or grandchildren. Some did live in the Pickenham/Swaffham area at about this time. This burial is certainly one of interest to me in my search.
Appreciated !Again your website has connected 3 generations of the Young (& Turner) families for which we had very little information.
Greatly appreciated as these facts brought us to discover a great more about all parties.
THANKSWhat a fantastic service! Quick, efficient and FREE! Congratulations to everyone involved with this great website.
THANKSMany thanks once again for this fantastic resource.
MarionThank you very much for providing the images of my Great Grandmother Mary Grace Hill's grave, also for the links that I will follow up at a later date.
