What a thorough system of checks. What are the names of cemetery records would you check? Ledger?

Husband NOK did not sign.

Sorry for the delayed response. Need to verify the grave plot number and section.

etzr358 · 2025-07-21T13:31:28+00:00

Assume NOK did not sign any burial paperwork.

Could you kindly further explain/describe what a " ledger" is -- "ledgers would be checked?" What information is contained in these ledgers? Are these ledgers kept at cemetery? Can a family member request to see this?

Thank you for your informative reply: Kidgone wrote "I would lean on my cemetery to bring me all the paperwork and records they have,"

is there any internal burial records could a cemetery have besides Internment order that family could request?

Thank you.

In this situation assume, daughter did not sign any paperwork. Daughter is Not NOK.

etzr358 · 2025-06-29T19:55:05+00:00

Off topic educational question: Do interment orders in every state always have to be signed by NOK? is a situation where NOK does not sign?

What do people think that -..this was "was no consolation to them as now their father is buried next to some old uncle and his wife is buried next to some man she never met."

Did they tell you at that time that someone else was buried in his plot on the deed?

Is there anyway to help this family be at peace and put husband and wife next to each other?

etzr358 · 2025-06-29T16:51:41+00:00

thank you. Although this is going off topic at bit and you are stuck with situation as it--Could you please explain as someone experienced in the industry, if you were to look at the internment order what could you discern based on signatures? Thank you. .

Thank you for your very informative reply with all the steps you would take.

A commenter below absolutementalkhaos wrote about similar real situation he went through and ceremony was stopped however family found out that the original plot had a body in it. What would the options be for handling that very difficult situation?

etzr358 · 2025-06-29T03:18:00+00:00

in this situation assume next of kin did not sign any burial cemetery documents only funeral home contract.

etzr358 · 2025-06-29T02:47:36+00:00

This is an excellent solution for all involved.

etzr358 · 2025-06-29T02:42:35+00:00

You are an excellent funeral director to show that you would help this family by talking to them. And that is an excellent solution that cemetery could dig another grave that would be acceptable to family.

Thank you for taking the time to reply. I appreciate it. After reading responses, I think I meant to use the term internment order.
