Deeds on file for Ford Cemetery

This Cemetery is known variously as Free Parochial Cemetery, Rice Lane, Walton or Parochial Cemetery, Rice Lane, Walton. It is situated off Rice Lane on Hornby Road or accessible also via Rawcliffe Road.

Some of the land is being used by the Rice Lane City Farm which is a Community Project and one of the volunteers accepts specific requests for research for specific graves.

Firstly there is no official plan for the cemetery, however they do hold an informal plan, there are a number of avenues noted alphabetically and they believe they have approximately a 50% success rate.

It is recommended that you make contact by email - ricelanecityfarm@hotmail.co.uk and a Grave Reference is absolutely essential, not just a name and date of death. They will need a minimum of a couple of weeks to try to find any information for you it's not a straightforward task for them, so don't just email and say you are visiting Liverpool tomorrow.

As they are a Community Project donations for any research undertaken are suggested and are always welcome.

There has been a discussion about this Cemetery already on Rootschat where one of the forum members has posted some photographs.
