A few month’s ago I wrote to the funeral directors for my great great grandparents [link]. I had hoped that they would be able to help me with burial records and cleaning and repairing the memorial.

They did write back quite quickly at the beginning of July. It is never a good sign when someone cannot copy your name or address correctly from a word processed letter. There was no information regarding the burial, but they did quote for refurbishing the memorial. However, at just under £1000, I think I will need to come into some money before pursuing this. I’m not sure if it is a good or bad price, but I seems a lot to me.
