Do not exclude Loxley and Wisewood cemeteries as my family all lived in Owlerton and were buried in both cemeteries.

 

A lot depends on where people are buried depending if there is a family grave. Many people classed as paupers were buried in other family graves if there was room.

 

There is a website Find a Grave that may help you.

 

Hope this helps.

Should anyone require the details for Sheffield Archives they are as follows:

Sheffield Archives is able to supply copies of documents and images (subject to copyright restrictions) in a variety of formats and sizes.

 

You are able to make photocopies and prints from microforms when you visit for a small fee per sheet of paper.

 

It is also possible for you to use your own digital camera (for non microform items) free of charge providing that you ask a member of staff for advice and guidance and that you complete a simple copyright declaration at the time you make the copy.

 

To use church registers, General Register Office indexes to births, marriage and deaths or census returns it is best if you call them in advance, as many of these items are only available on microform and these can only be viewed using a simple to use machine that you need to book in advance, however this is only a formality as the machines are rarely all in use.

 

Lastly, In order to use Sheffield Archives facilities you will need a Library Card, which can be issued on the day providing that you take a photographic form of ID with you, along with two pieces of documentation to confirm your address.
