Lincoln burial records on Deceased Online

From Deceased Online (www.deceasedonline.com):

The historic Lincoln is the second city in the English Midlands to add records to www.deceasedonline.com.

Immediately available are all records for the five cemeteries and crematorium managed by City of Lincoln Council.

The new collection, which dates back to 1856, comprises:
  • digital scans of original burial and cremation registers
  • details of all occupants of each grave
  • maps indicating the cemetery section for each grave

Lincoln is an ancient English city with a rich and colourful history. As one of only four locations with original copies of Magna Carta, 2015 is a special year where a new 'Magna Carta Vault' at the city's castle will help commemorate the 800th anniversary signing of the world famous charter.
