Once again the Blaenau list has come up trumps for
me. I would just like to say a big thankyou

Ben Fieldhouse, the author of "And they work us to death" has sent me
some information about burials etc in Blaina in 1895 +.
"At that time the dead of Blaina would have been interred at one of four
sites:
1) St Peter's Blaina
2) Berea Chapel
3) Hermon chapel Nantyglo
4) Blaina parish Cemetery
John Lamb was not buried at St Peter's or Hermon Chapel and I think it
is Highly unlikely that a stranger to Blaina with no family there would
have been buried at Berea Chapel.
I conclude that he was buried at the local cemetery. The Gwent FHS has
no data from the municipal cemeteries, Barry lambe should contact The
Blaenau Gwent Authority at Ebbw Vale."
Barry I hope this is a help in your search
