Was given a plot number of my late grandfather and mother who both died in March 1925 but when contacted the cemetery they could not find it also looked at the parish council registry and nothing came up. His name was Ernest and Ann McGowan. I am desperately trying to find out find.
This is the information on this site. Is this the same info you had

I believe at some point Section I at City road was split into three separate sections I1, I2, & I3 with plot number 9168 putting the grave in Section I1.
I have checked my collection of photos of the headstones at City Rd but there does not appear to be a memorial at that plot. There is a headstone at plot 9167 (name of John BERRY) then a vase at plot 9169 that has "Love to Graham" (Hixon) written on it.
