death details of a John green

[doublegreen]

I am looking for the burial details of a John Green born Cressing 1806, married White Notley 1826 whose children were baptised in Danbury, Woodham Mortimer and Hazeliegh, Essex.On the Marriage of his son James in 1868 his father was shown as a "steward" and listed as deceased. His family appeared
on the 1861 census for Hazeleigh with wife Sarah shown as a widow.

He was still alive on the 1851 census

There are two John Green deaths registered in Maldon civil registration district between the two censuses.

Deaths Sep 1852 Green  John    Maldon  4a 120   
Deaths Mar 1860   Green  John     Maldon  4a 137

The likely burial would be in Hazeleigh churchyard - parish registers are at Essex Record Office.

'Hazeleigh’s original timber-framed Church, St. Nicholas’s, was located in an isolated part of the village, next to the Old Hall, but by 1900 had fallen into disuse. Due to its size and lack of windows it was known locally as "the meanest church in England". It was pulled down in about 1922, although the last service had been held several years earlier, in 1906. One of the reasons it fell into disuse was that an iron church was built in a more populous part of the village by the late-Victorian vicar, Rev. William Stuart (brother of Robert Stuart and father of William Horwood Stuart, both diplomats). This iron church was later demolished as well, though, and the parish of Hazeleigh is now incorporated into that of Woodham Mortimer.'
