You're more than welcome Janette. If there is an office at the cemetery they may be able to give you a cemetery plan with the grave number marked on it with a "x".

Our local cemetery have done this for me on several occasions and on a few occasions have even walked me to the exact spot because they know the layout very well, even if there is no headstone.

You can contact the cemetery here:-

Wath Cemetery
Cemetery Road
Wath on Dearne
Rotherham
S63 7SH
Telephone: 0808 302 8425

They should be able to give you the plot number if you have the name and date of death.

Not everyone will have a headstone or marker on the grave and she may have been cremated and the ashes scattered.
