Herefordshire, England

Published: April 6, 2020
Total records: 22

Compiled by: Hereforshire Council
Acquired from: Council website

Background

The Herefordship Council, Environmental Health, handles the disposition of bodies that expired within the limits of the Council, and which there are no other living persons willing to assume responsibility. If there is no next of kin to claim the body, Environmental Health arranges for a public funeral. If the decedent had made their final wishes known regarding burial or cremation, Environmental Health will comply. Otherwise, it is up the council to decide between cremation or burial.

Funeral expense are taken out of the decedent's estate. If there are any remaining funds, those funds are transferred to the Treasury Solicitor, and publicized through the Bona Vacantia Division. Browse these records at, "Unclaimed Estates".
