Speaking as one who has visited Hereford Cemetery, I would suggest the joint grave of the girls who died in the fire may be lost to sight (if no surviving memorial was put up) but it could and should be findable. The burial registers will if kept according to detail laid down in law, indicate the plot numbers which will tie in with a specific location in the cemetery.
