Ada Jane Stagg Burial

Im trying to find the burial of Ada Jane Stagg in 1900 aged 32years. Her Address on her death certificate was Whitehall Street in Bordesley ward. Ive tried Key Hill and Warstone cemeteries but there is no trace of her there. Does anyone know what churches were around this area or cemeteries at this time. Its probably really simple but I cant get my head round how to find her.
Thank you
Gemma
 
Gemma Ada would most probably be in a cemetery as by this date most grave yards were closed. The only church yard burials were if there was an existing family plot. I would take a guess she is probably buried in Yardley Cemetery unless there is a family grave elsewhere. I would send an email to Yardley with the details on her death certificate and they may be able to help you.

Thanks Wendy,

Ive just tried Yardley and no joy. Her husband and his second wife are there but not Ada. Back to the drawing board.Perhaps she is with her parents Abraham and Hannah jane Ashmore. Her father also died in 1900.
