GB - I'm not sure why 'the authorities' should and could do more. If you have the grave number, they will tell you all you need to know, if you ask them. If you mean they should put everything you want online - it's a matter of priorities... the 'authorities' have to pay for all sorts of things with increasingly restricted money. Is your need to know where your granny is buried more important than paying to look after someone's granny now? That's the choice 'the authorities' have to make. I know where I'd rather my money was spent.
In the meantime, 'the authorities' enabled the wonderful Freda Chorlton to access their files to create the online database we have for the Wigan Cemeteries. I'm sure they would be just as willing to allow anyone else to access the data to bring it up to date.
