Burials 1941-1944

No burials took place at Westgate Chapel, however there is a brief record of some services that were performed prior to interment at other locations. 

There is no known catalogue reference for these records and the entries are very brief giving the date of the service, name of the individual, age and location of the burial after the service. Those with ages in <brackets> relate to records with no age recorded and this age has been obtained from the GRO death index where possible.

Old and New Cemetery relate to the cemeteries of Cleckheaton.
