Try phoning: Stockport Cemetery & Crematorium Buxton Rd, Stockport, SK2 6LS Tel: 0161-480 5221 1842 is very early for a cemetery burial - they only began in 1837 and the first ones were near London (I think). Are you sure it isn't the name of a church/chapel?? Merry |

Thanks for looking anyway Merry. I will try the phone number. Dea x p.s. - I keep replying and you keep adding bits so I keep updating - You ARE good to me! I didn't know about the dates of burials, but is says 'Burial: Mt Tabor Cem, Stockport, Cheshire, England so I assumed the Cem was Cemetary - I can't think of anything else it would mean. Dea x |

If you 'google' Mount Tabor Cemetary Stockport and click on pages for the UK it should display a website called Familia: Stockport Metropolitan Borough Council. Click on that, scroll down to section 10 and you will see it listed. Maureen |

Am intrigued now....maybe that's where some of my missing ones are buried! Wonder if its the original name for what is now just known as Stockport Cemetery? |

It looks as if Mount Tabor was the Methodist Church in Stockport. There are quite a few references to it if you Google that. |
