Re: Burials at St James Church Town Centre

Hi Kathleen,

I doubt very much that they were sent to Hutcliffe as I don't believe it opened until 1974. Long after St James was bombed during WW2.

LANGTON, Joseph (, died on ?, at the age of 79).
Resided at Sheffield and buried on 5 Jan 1845 in ? ground;
Grave Number ?, Section ? of St James Cemetery, City Centre.

Have you checked with Sheffield Archives to where the remains could have been removed to?

Just to add.

St James' Church which suffered extensive bomb damage in WW2. In 195O the remains of those buried in the churchyard were reinterred at Wardsend.
