Can anyone give me advice on how to find a cemetery plot in Atherton Cemetery? Know the name but not the location in this cemetery. Who would I contact.

Thanks

Have you seen these for Atherton Cemetery?:-

Yes, thanks I have seen the first one, but second one is similar to one I have seen before without
the plots being listed. I believe Stanislaus Puskunigas is buried in New Garden of Remembrance (1986) but he was buried in 1978. Have tried to locate from Billion Graves. A member of our
Family Tree went down there but had no idea of location. Hoping to save some steps when I
come to visit, if the can pin down exact location.

There will be a burial register with that information, I would suspect that at that date it may still be with the cemetery, have you tried telephoning them?

No I have not. I tried calling the Wigan council for cemetery information but they cut me off
