Thursday 18th September
Time: 10.30am-3.30pm
Price: Free

Have you ever wondered whether a relative, former resident of your home, or a local figure is buried in Sheffield General Cemetery?

As part of Heritage Open Days, our dedicated team of researches will be hosting a Burial Research Open Day in the Samuel Worth Chapel. Whether you’re tracing family history, researching the past of a local building, or simply curious about who rests in this historic site, we’d love to help.

This is a relaxed drop-in session; admission is free and there is no need to book. Please bring along any details you already have – names, addresses, approximate dates – and our team will assist in searching our burial records. If we find a match, we can tell you the location of the grave and share any other information we hold.

While you’re here, you can also enjoy a drink and snack from our café, peruse our book stall and learn more about our research with Architects & Architecture Exhibition. Come and discover the lives and legacies woven into Sheffield General Cemetery’s landscape.
