My Henry and Sarah Bannister predeceased Sarah's granny, Nanny Heys (widow of James Heys) and I thought I'd found found them all buried together in Briercliffe whenre Sarah was born and in my excitement sent off for Nanny's death cert & will.

Unfortunately I should have checked the death dates on the gravestone, I have Henry & Sarah's death certs and the couple in the grave have completely different death dates.

So, if it ill helps anyone out there, here are the details:

15 Aug 1893 14 Jackson Sreet Burnley, Nanny Heys, aged 80 widow of James Heys an outdoor labourer died of Senile Decay certified by AG Holt FRCS, informant JT Bannister, grandson, present at death of 10 Escott Street Burnley registered 16 Aug 1893 Registrar William Thomas Clegg Deputy Registrar.

And I'll post the will details when it comes!

Many of my rellies are not buried together - some aren't even in the same cemetary - in fact I'm still looking for where g gf who died in 1908 is buried.
