Hi Crystal

Thanks for that, it does sound like we live close by. I'm in Burton and have lots of family tree connections in Fradley, Alrewas, Barton under Needwood, Dunstall, Kings Bromley, Rugeley and Burton so I've visited lots of churchyards over the past year.

Kind regards
Mel

I send you thanks too, Crystal.

I have trudged through Farewell, Gentleshaw, Hammerwich and Chorley churchyards seeking out Bradbury headstones and there appeared to be thousands!

I am south east of Birmingham so just a little way away.

Thank you for looking for me, Alf. Sadly, these Williamsons are not related to my quest.  The names would have to be very young children I suspect. The one I mentioned earlier, a John Williamson, who appeared to die aged 0-3 months might possibly be a possibility.

I hope you enjoyed your walk today in the sunshine albeit it's still rather cold.

Hi J

Fradley MI's....  I have them nearly all done except for one or two that I could not read. I have sent you all the Williamson headstones that were there.  They may be buried there but without headstones.

Alrewas... I have done, except for the ones that have been removed and placed around the wall which are now covered with vegetation. I intend to revisit that site, as I will with Kings Bromley. None of your names have turned up, so it may have to be a trip to the record office.

Barton under Needwood... I have only done a few, mostly war graves, and I was joined by the vicar who showed me all the war graves.  He had with him a complete list of the headstones in his churchyard, so he may be able to help, but as Arnie says, I'll be back!!

My word, Alf, you have been busy.
 
When we arranged for my mother's ashes to be interred at Hammerwich Church the vicar told me that he had found details of those of my family who were also buried there, including a young child who had no marked headstone. He knew the exact spot from his records. The clergy can be very helpful most of the time.
