Title: Brigham Burials
Post by: SK4SK on Wednesday 27 July 05 00:07 BST (UK)

Does anyone have the burial register for Parish of Brigham?  Looking for deaths of OWEN(S), in particular any from Greysouthern, and John or Thomas Owen living Brigham late 1790s/early 1800s.
Thanks, Simon

You can get a booklet (PDF format) called 'All the monumental Inscriptions in the graveyards of Brigham and Bridekirk...' from parishchest.com. There is a gravestone in there inscribed

In Memory of John Owen of Old Field who
died Sept. 12th 1869 aged 92 years.

Maybe this is your man
