Re: Burial Index
In Response To: Re: Burial Index ()

As posted elsewhere, it is important to draw a distinction between death and burial (and MI).

Prior to 1878 there was no requirement to register a death so our major source of information is the Parish Burial Registers.

I do not know when a crematory opened on the Island.

The Borough Cemetery opened in 1899 so cremated remains before that date are unlikely to be interred there, hence there would be no record.
