Hello ****, to obtain a cemetery deed, please follow these steps:
*. Contact the cemetery management where the plot is located.
*. Provide necessary proof of your relation to your grandfather.
*. They may ask for a copy of your grandfather's death certificate.
*. If the plot is paid off, the management should provide the deed.
We have talked to the caretakers of the cemetery and they will not give us a copy of the deed because we do not have a copy of the certificate or deed just my mothers word and my grandfathers markers at the cemetery plot
I understand your situation, ****. In Kentucky, you could potentially:
*. Obtain a death certificate via the Kentucky Cabinet for Health and Family Services.
*. Approach a local court for a ruling if the cemetery refuses to cooperate.
Could you confirm if you have tried obtaining the death certificate?
We do have a death certificate
Great, ****. With the death certificate, you can:
*. Provide it as proof to the cemetery management.
*. If they still refuse, consult a local attorney or contact the Kentucky Attorney General's Office for consumer protection issues.
We haven’t got money to go to court
I understand your concern, ****. In Kentucky, you can:
