Angus burials

Post by LesleyB » Sat Sep 05, 2009 3:28 pm

Hi all
Just came across this - I expect it has been mentioned before:
http://www.deceasedonline.com/

Angus Council
Approximately 200,000 burial register records are being made available online, with a mixture of register scans and computerised records. Maps showing the exact locations of graves and where available digital photographs of headstones will also be provided. There are currently approximately 114,000 records across 6 cemeteries as detailed below. During the Summer to Autumn 2009 period, we will be uploading records for the remaining 86,000 records across over 75 cemeteries.

Hi Lesley,

Haven't seen this one before. Any cemetery records that are online are great, although as far as I know I have no-one in the Angus area. I thought at first it was free but I see it's only the index and then pay per view for the actual images.

It's mainly the London area that seems to be online with Angus being the only Scottish cemetery, so far. Wonder if they'll be adding more Scottish areas in the near future.

Regards,
Anne H

Ah, I hadn't explored too deeply, so thanks for pointing that out.

Best wishes
Lesley
