Dumping in the cemetery

Posted by graeme ford on 31/10/2009, 1:49 pm

Interesting sight today, as i was walking towards my parents grave an elderly gentleman was dumping leaves n sticks and bits and pieces over the wall into the cemeterey. I was about to challenge him but wife said that if he was brasent enough to dump in the cemetery he would be beyond reason.....with hindsight i wish i had....some people just dont care.

That's too early to have been buried in the Hebburn Cemetery.

But we have a couple of keen geneoligists who visit this messageboard so it may be worth making a new (separate) post asking for some help with this search. Obviously we can't promise anything but you may be lucky.

Try to give a bit more info in your new post (e.g. your reference to Lee seems to have lost something in this message) and make the subject line specific - e.g. "Help with Family history search - Trane" or something like that.

A week or so ago the wife and I were tidying up her parents' grave. When we were finished we took the rubbish to the wire-mesh bins and low and behold a dvd player,sky box and radio had been dumped.What sought of people can stoop so low?
