Post by: AliIsoMar on Saturday 08 June 13 14:05 BST (UK)

Hi, i'm currently researching the cemetery gravestones { the graveyard is now unused and in private hands, i do have permission to be there by the owners} if anyone thinks they may have ancesters buried there please let me know and i will try to check for you. the cemetery is very overgrown and the gravestones are sometimes hidden or hard to read or completely missing but all the gravestones i have found i'm writting down the full grave insciptions and a plan of where they are in the cemetery.

Hi,

Don't know whether you still have the records you made [I didn't know there was a cemetery there!] - but I am hopeful that there may be some of my ancestors buried in the church cemetery - as the church has a stained glass window with one of my ancestors named.

Beckworth is the family name.

If you did come across any burials for my ancestors I would be grateful to hear from you.

Many thanks.

Elaine
