Has anybody been in the Loxley Independent Chapel on Loxley Road. Its all boarded up now - If you have, can you remember if it had a World War One memorial or plaque inside. I am trying to get a list of names of the men who fell in the Great war and were from Loxley.
Sorry I cant help you with your precise query, but I am tracing my Family Tree and came across some details of a relative named Rev. Henry Hope who was interred in Loxley Cemetry. Do you know whether the Church that you were referring to had a cemetry and where along Loxley Road is it situated. I do not know the Sheffield area at all. Thanks for any help.

Loxley Cemetery is about half a mile away from the chapel that smiths565 mentioned, actually on Long Lane, Loxley.
Just across the road there is also Wisewood Cemetery.
I am involved with family history groups, so if you have any more details of your ancestor, date of death etc. let me know and I will take a look for you the next time I'm passing.

Thanks for your message. I didnt realise that there were 2 cemetries so close. I could only see the Wisewood one on the map. I have also found some photos of Loxley Chapel on another one of the questions on this website. I think that I will keep reading this webite, you never know what you might learn. I have also found a Sheffied Genealogy site which has some old maps on it, which again might be useful. Thanks again.
