Geoffers, thanks for the quick reply

Villages where someone grew up, lived and died are fairly simple.

But, finding places of burial in towns can be a problem unless there are indexed surveys of cemeteries - check with the local FHS and also the council responsible for the cemetery.

One other means (though I appreciate it's, difficult from America) is to try local newspapers which published notices of birth, marriage and death. If you are really lucky, you might find that the local newspaper is still going strong and has an index to its records.
