    I'm hoping that I can confirm this by finding burial records which I believe may be located at the London metropropolitan archives.
    Here you go...

    https://search.lma.gov.uk/LMA_DOC/H61_DA.PDF

    Interment registers are listed on page 4. There may be something else of interest to you such as the wage books.

    LMA are closed on Fridays. No appointment needed. You can register online in advance for a reader's card ("History Card"). Don't forget to take ID. Allow time to complete registration. I don't suppose you can order documents in advance if you haven't got a ticket. Allow half an hour or so for documents to be delivered. Buy a sandwich on your way there!

    Presumably you have already checked the easily accessible sources via CityArk - Darenth parish church and also the burial registers of Watling Street/East Hill Cemetery, Dartford 1882-2006, Swanscombe Cemetery 1887-2006 and Stone Cemetery 1899-1988

    Default Darenth Asylum

    Hi All/ Was looking for details of my Great Grandmother Sarah Ann Terry who died while a patient in Darenth Asylum when I came across this thread. I wonder if the following may help from the North West Kent Family History Society.

    Darenth: Darenth Asylum (Hospital)

    Darenth: Darenth Asylum Chaplains Interment Register and Smallpox Deaths
    https://www.nwkfhs.org.uk/shop/nwkfh...mallpox-deaths

    Both are CDs of info which you can order from the site. I've ordered both and will come back here to give an idea of the content and if I think it was worth the cash.

    Hi Gary,

    Were the CDs any good?
    Looking to see where my MIL's aunt was buried. She died in 1926 in Darenth Asylum: Rose Hill.

    Thanks

    Neil.
