Cenotaphs

[Dave m]

Does anybody know where I could find a list of cenotaphs in the accrington area, As it should give me a starting point on tracing the area that my grandfathers family come from.
Thanks, Dave.

Not 100% sure they will have this info but try the library....

Perhaps if we all posted the ones that we know of it might help.

There's the one in Oakhill Park of course.

Mercer Park in Clayton, and Gatty Park.

Maybe the British Legion could help?

Andrew, thanks ,I found the name of my great uncle on one of the pages i got from the site you sent. I didn't find which cenotaph he was in in Accrington although I know he is in accrington, however I found the cemetary he is buried in iN France, I found out that he was married, so there is something else to go on, Thanks again.

Dave.
