New Cemetery

proper brummie kid
Hello, can you help please? I have 2 death cards that state New Cemetery as the place of burial. This was 1902, so which was New Cemetery then? Thanks.
 
I think at that time there was two cemetery's referred to as new, Handsworth and Witton

Thank you for your kind offer John. Yes I do have this lovely little book it has been very useful in my interest in Birmingham cemeteries I bought it about 4 years ago from the library. The only error I have found is Joseph states that William Hutton is buried at Aston Parish church when he is in fact buried at St Margarets. It's still an excellent little book though! Thanks again John as your info may be useful to others.
