I assume that you were looking in the Cemetary in Brynithel? I too had trouble finding vthe grave of my grandfather as it had grown over. Eventually I found the sexton who showed me the plans of the cemetary and discovered the number of the grave. I was then able to uncover the stone and found not only my grandfather but my grandmother too!

Hi and welcome to the forum. There is a photo of Florence Little's grave in Neil Milkins' book "Every Mother's Nightmare" which might help you find it if you can't get a plot number. It also contains info about the Little family.

Also it is Darran Road rather than street and Gelli Crug rather than crossing. Not trying to be smart - it just might make your searches more accurate. Smile

If you contact the local council they will provide you with the information you request. I think the cost is £10 min for a search although you can submit a number of requests for that intial fee. Contct deltails below
