Just before I catch up on everyone’s post, me and my dad visited st Joseph’s thismorning. Got talking to the lovely staff. The lady who deals with the register/burial info is on holiday. But they knew I was waiting for an email off Naomi from st chads. Anyway I got home, and I received this email- so happy.
I have ordered Maria death certificate, it should be here any day, so I will see who registered the death?!!?
im looking forward to finding the plot

I think she might be at St Joseph's as the lady says 1939 is blank - very unusual if no burials at all that year. Comment is about "failing to fill in 1939 register".
Most likely buried in family plot with Giuseppe
 
Could she not still be buried at St Joseph's and not listed or not listed correctly as was mentioned previously I think?

Nicola Iommi lived on Booth St, though the other end. Here's a map from 1955 showing Jervis Terrace...

you are right I re read the email and it does seem like no burials were noted that year. very odd.
 
So Eleuterio who moved to America, his great grand daughter Katelyn, she is looking for a photo for me of Eleuterios son Michael who would be her grandad. Im on the look out now for photos, while I wait for the map from st Josephs.
 
On the map it says "jervais terrace" and says "permanently closed". I think it may be undergoing renovation so you may not be able to visit it. That is a guess.
Lyn - find 17 and19 Booth Street. On the left hand side of 17 is what looks like a long driveway. I think that leads to the terrace. On the garden wall from 17 is painted the sign I posted in post 312.
You can't go to the terrace on Street View as it is behind the houses.

That's a shame, every address I come across is no longer there.
