Thanks rolfia.I have found my 4th great grandfather Samuel Andrew his wife Mary both died in 1841. I also found my 3rd great grandmother who died in 1840 giving birth to twins who died 13 and 17 weeks later. I think there are more ancestors buried in St Marks?

The number listed as the gravestone number isn't, it is the number given when transcribing.
No. 1284
COATON Samuel   66   12 Sep. 1815
COATON Frances   80   31 Aug 1823   Wife of Samuel
ANDREW Samuel   74   16 Nov 1841
ANDREW Mary       74  14 Mar 1841  Wife of Samuel

Next to this gravestone is this grave, So, not sure if connected.
No.1283
ANDREW Sarah          53y            30 Oct 1848         Wife of William
ANDREW Mary            2y 10wks    6 May 1825          Dau of Wm & Sarah
ANDREW Eleanor        2y 7mos     18 Aug 1827        Dau of Wm & Sarah
ANDREW William         1y 7mos     2 Sep 1834          Son of Wm & Sarah
ANDREW Harriet         7y 6mos     8 Nov 1834          Dau of Wm & Sarah
ANDREW Rachel         5y 7mos      6 Dec 1834          Dau of Wm & Sarah
ANDREW Benjamin     1y 7mos      10 Sep 1837        Son of Wm & Sarah

There are other ANDREW'S in the Churchyard.

These two stones are at the entrance on St Mark's Lane.
If you go on Google Satellite and St Mark's Lane up towards St Hellier's Drive, if you zoom in you will see a break in the wall which is where the entrance into the Churchyard is. 
Street view shows the entrance and your stones are to the left of this.   
If viewing from above they are two or three stones right from the entrance at the end of the row, closest to the wall.
(Hope you can follow my directions - I'm worse than a SatNav ::))

The stones are flat stones.

Hi,

Glad the information was some help. :D

You could try contacting the mlfhs to see when they going to start the project of re-transcribing & photographing  the gravestones?  It was mentioned early last year but no news since ???

If you need any others looking up, just post!

Hi,

I think this is the inscription from 1284  ???:-

Samuel COATON Died: 12 Sep 1815 aged 66 yrs; Frances COATON w/o Samuel COATON Died: 31 Aug 1823 aged 80 yrs; Samuel ANDREW Died: 16 Nov 1841 aged 74 yrs; Mary ANDREW w/o Samuel Andrew Died: 14 Mar 1841 aged 75 yrs;

Provides exactly the same information as that given by Cancan.
