Title: Norton St Philip
Post by: grahamila on Monday 11 November 24 21:09 GMT (UK)
I have ancestors buried in the churchyard at Norton St Philip.  Is there anyone with an interest in Norton St Philip who can assist me with my research?

Findagrave has a few photos of graves at NSP.  What is it that you are needing help with so we know if we can help.

Do any records exist of the marked graves in the churchyard?  I live in Surrey so it is not easy to visit.

From Genuki

The Somerset & Dorset Family History Society has a "number of official Projects which aim to collect, transcribe and make available data which will be of assistance to members and other researchers engaged in studies of family history"

    The Society's volunteers can search any of all of these databases,  research charges apply, these projects include;
        Indexes to the Parish files held at their Family History Centre:  Somerset
        Somerset Baptisms, the first baptism is 1538 and the latest 1996, but the majority cover the period approximately 1700-1812.
        Somerset & Dorset Marriages,  pre-1754 and 1754-1837
        Somerset & Dorset Burials

        Monumental transcriptions

Sadly that entry on findagrave does not prove that there are headstones, many entries on that site have been entered from burial records.
