HI WALSHY
The Nearest Cemetry To Highgate Would Have Been The Brandwood End Cem In Brandwood Rd Kings heath And The Second Nearest Would Be Lodge Hill
Perhaps Moma p Could Throw A More Definate Answer To Your Question On This As This Is Her Specialalty Department
But In My Opinion And Knowing The Area I Would Have Thought That In My Opinion That order Of Merit Would Have Been That ,But Saying That I Did
Think That Yeas Ago They Started Filling Up Witton Before They Started Else Where Because Alot Of People From Across B,ham Was Taken And Burried There , Like The B,HAM,S First Bank Note Forger He Was Burried Behind The Wall On The Witton Rd End
Best Wishes Astonian ,;;;;;

Walshy I think Astonian has covered the local cemeteries. It is always difficult to locate graves as there could have been a family grave elsewhere. My great great grandparents came from Lutterworth in Leicestershire but are buried at Key Hill Cemetery in Hockley. Also take into account what religion they were most non conformists are buried at Key Hill. The Friends of Brandwood End have an excellent web site you may get some help there. I am not familiar with Lodge Hill but you can always ask. If you contact the cemeteries remember they are very busy and don't get paid for research so give as much info as possible. Good Luck!
