January 1st … a new year and a new project. With gracious generosity, Ann Featherstone  has donated to the site much of her data on burials at the Stanton Road Cemetery , compiled with meticulous and painstaking research. This will help to fill in some of our  existing gaps. I have just started incorporating these into the site. You can find the first entry here. The records will gradually appear in the section on Stanton Road Burials 1864 onwards (under Ilkeston deaths and burials).
