    I have an update. So St Josephs managed to find an earlier map for me today. It listed the plot numbers how they're written at St chads, so I was able to locate the section for Giuseppes plot, (Maria should be with him too) although no records were written down in 1939, she isn't at any other...

    yes so if Rodolfo married a Desmond, When I searched earlier, I saw Desmond family tree come up as we shared some names, So I assumed it was related that way, but I could be wrong and now I can't find it at all.

    Yes the sister Marina went back to Italy with her husband. But I know Rodolfo stayed here. Thanks for that, more info to add to the tree…. Makes sense as I just saw a Desmond tree. So I might pop them a message :) I’d love to speak to Rodolfo but he must be in his 90s now….

    Yes I’ll put the stone below. I looked on find a grave and there’s one individual that has put a lot of graves on from st Joseph’s and some have a number and one or two have a letter first, but I noticed there was a 5 , so it doesn’t go up to 4, so I no longer think abcd is the equivalent to...

    right update…… sorry for the long post. So took a friend with me today to look at plot 87. We started from the bottom and counted each gravestone until we got to 87. When we got there we realised a stone was in its place already, the one I had taken next to where I thought the plot was. So we...

    So when I was doing research it said that St Josephs was one of the only catholic churches to not bury random people together. So im hoping if it was for two people that Angelina his wife is in there. When I asked AI about the small rectangle square by the plot number they said it could indicate...

    So I’m glad I went to St Chads first as they seem to be the only place that hold the original register for St Josephs. I was hoping to see it today, but it’s more typed up documents and some hand written. I found no Iommis in any books BUT luckily I had two plots anyway. In the St Chads one...

    Ive just had a quick google of the back to back houses as wasn't sure what they looked like, I read most were taken down by 1950 like you say. Small world they both overlapped at some point.
