If you get the death certificate of one of them it should have their usual address on it. You can then look to see which cemetery is the nearest to the address and start by ringing that one and asking them to check their records. I think they charge £25 per look up per person, per cemetery, so it helps if you can narrow down the cemetery first.

Does he know they were actually buried? The majority of people, certainly since the 1970s, opt for cremation.
