Hi John,

If you look over to the left you will see an index and the sixth one down is Burial Records.

Follow it through and you will find James Arthur and Annie's burials are there.

Hi John

I was having trouble with the burial index on my phone on Wednesday although I was in Burngreave Cemetery and the signal wasn't great!

These have come up for me, looks like Annie's details are slightly different to what you had. I just put Burncross and Wright, Annie is near the top.

WRIGHT, Annie (Retired, age 93).
Died at Mortomley House Mortomley Lane High Green; Buried on July 3, 1987 in Consecrated ground;
Grave Number 23 Row V3, Section M3-Y3 of Burncross Cemetery, Sheffield.
Parent or Next of Kin if Available: ~. Remarks: ~.
