Worth trying St Helens, Sefton, but hopefully Hilary may be online soon and give her opinion, geographically more her area.

As you know the date of deaths, it might be worth looking at local newspapers to see if there is a death announcement as that could tell you the place of burial.

Depends a lot on what religion they may have been ? 1920's is too early for Thornton and they are not in Walton Park as far as I can determine from surviving records, but that would pre-suppose Cemeteries as opposed to Graveyards. Sefton Church or St Lukes would probably be the closest churches. It should be remembered that the area would have been in West Lancashire in those days. Although being so close to Hightown & Formby it might be argued that it was within the Parish area of Walton on the Hill possibly ?

If they were living in Ince Blundell they were probably RC and the most likely would be Ince Blundell RC church which has a grave yard.

The church is called Holy Family.
