I've recently seen a post regarding a British Cemetery in Buenos Aires. I'm searching for information on the British Cemetery in Montevideo. Does anyone know how to go about finding out names there?

Access the internet white or yellow pages of Uruguay. Look under "Embajadas". Get in touch with the British Embassy in Montevideo and request info about the Cementerio Britanico.

I could help you with your research as I live in Montevideo, Uruguay. Please tell me what specific name(s) you are looking for and I can make the relevant enquiries as I know the Manager of the British Cemetery in Montevideo.

British Cementery
Av. Rivera 3868 - Montevideo - Uruguay

Would it be possible to find out if a John McGregor was buried in the British Cemetery.
He died in Montevideo on the 10th of March 1906
Thank you
