Finding your Burial Search site
There are 3 ways to find your Burial Search site:
- Go to burialsearch.comand use the search feature to find your cemetery by name or location
- Use the full URL of your Burial Search site
- For our demo cemetery, this is https://burialsearch.com/1/Guardian+Angels+Cemetery. Your cemetery will have a similar pattern: burialsearch.com/###/Cemetery name
- Use the shortened URL of your Burial Search site
- For our demo cemetery, this is https://burialsearch.com/1. Your cemetery will have a similar pattern: burialsearch.com/###
Quick search
The quick search is at the top of a cemetery's Burial Search page, just underneath the header. Visitors can input a first, last or maiden name, then click "Search" to see a list of matches. Spelling needs to be accurate for all Burial Search searches.
Note: The quick search only matches the beginnings of names. Searching "will" will return results like "William" and "Williams", but not "Fitzwilliam" or "MacWillis".
Advanced search
The advanced search is at the top of a cemetery's Burial Search page, just underneath the header. Click on "See advanced search" to access it. Spelling needs to be accurate for all Burial Search searches.
Unlike the quick search, the advanced search will search for matches within a name. Searching for "ma" will return results like "Mary" and "Mason" as well as "Thomas" and "Amanda".
Owner search
Owner search allows for searching by owner or co-owner name. This feature is most useful for cemetarians wanting to reassure customers that they do have a record of their space purchase, and said purchase is viewable on a public website they can access themselves.
The owner search is at the top of a cemetery's Burial Search page, just underneath the header. Click on "See advanced search" to access it. Spelling needs to be accurate for all Burial Search searches.
To display the owner search, this option needs to be turned on in CIMS. See the "Search by owner" section of "Burial Search settings".
By clicking on "See advanced search", visitors to BurialSearch.com can access the "Owner search" option.
A list of relevant results will display; website visitors can navigate around the map to see where these owner spaces are located (Platinum only).
