have you published all the births,deaths and marriages from the Warwickshire particularly Bulkingto/wolvey/bedworth/coventry area?
Great to see a Birmingham set of Parish Burial records! Well done.
I’m disappointed so far – At least four of my Howse ancestors known to be buried at Key Hill cemetery show as ‘no results’ and others almost certainly buried Birminham parishes not found. Presumably this is ongoing and more records are to be added?
This should make it easier – thanks. Looking forward to researching the information.
The entries for Key Hill and Warstone Lane are not parish burials. These are the interment registers and both cemeteries are controlled by Birmingham City Council. Parish burials for Warrwickshire will be made available at a later date – Peter Abbott BMSGH
Hi Peter
I was interested in your comment because of the name of Howse. My husband’s mother’s maiden name was Howse and the family came from Birmingham. I am wondering if there is any connection? My mother-in-law’s name is Marjorie. I don’t know a lot about her family since I am busy investigating my own (also all from Birmingham) and am interested in any burial records from Birmingham – would love to see more on the site. If you are interested in contacting me, my email address is:

At last! Someone who underasntds! Thanks for posting!
