Hi, does anybody have any idea where a body may have been buried following a hanging at Kirkdale Gaol in 1856 please? I'm at a bit of a loss to know where to look except Necropolis, St James or St Mary's Kirkdale. I was hoping not to have to work my way through all of them if anybody had knowledge.

The bodies were originally buried within the confines of the gaol but all were exhumed in 1893 and reinterred at Kirkdale Cemetery. See https://www.sarsfieldmemorialsliverpool.co.uk/3031-2/

Oh thank you, I'd drawn a blank.

This enquiry was received via our website and mention has been made that there is a TV programme looking at the case for a miscarriage of justice. I hope the poster keeps us up to date with whether the programme comes off as I'm sure it will be interesting.

The enquirer sent her thanks to you Retiringtype "Thank you for the information. That is brilliant. I didn't think I would get so much. I will look at the link. If I can return the favour at ant time please let me know.
Thank you once again. I appreciate your efforts. "
