You will need an exact date of death in order for the grave to be located. If you don't have this information there's a good chance you will be charged a search fee, here in Nottingham this is £25:00.

Hope this helps.

Answer 3

As an aside, don't be surprised if her grave isn't marked. The cemetery will have a record of where she is buried, but sometimes with very young children they don't bother erecting gravestones. It depends on the family.
