I suspect there was a mistake made when recording burial in parish register. Many were written up a lot later than the event.
I think this is probably right.
The incumbent at Catmore from 1848 to 1853 was one Thos. Mitchell, and it is noted that he "held various curacies" (source: a framed list in the church). The registers were possibly not regularly updated.
It doesn't explain the delay in registration, but it's interesting that there's a batch of belated registrations.
That was a useful bonus from West Berks RO!
