Christ Church Bible Christian Church---King St Salford
« on: Sunday 14 April 24 14:26 BST (UK) »
In the Burial Registers for the above church, certainly in 1820/30's, most entries have a numerical annotation at the end of the entry eg 1/453. Does anyone know for certain if they are Grave numbers?

Hopefully, I've attached part of an entry with the numbers circled.

Regards, Eric

I would think it was a grave number, unless anyone else  knows better.
Shows cause of death which I haven't seen before.

Thanks.

I've come across the cause of death at quite a few places....St George, Hulme & Ardwick Cem. & others. Makes interesting reading.

If you search for George Foden, buried 1811, Salford (FindMyPast burials) it should deliver a page showing a Column headed "Grave" - with numbers.

Many thanks for that. Seems to be a definite answer.

I thought that would be the case as I have found a few burials that appear to be members of the same family. However, when I looked for the Grave in 'Owens' MI's, the numbers in his list don't match up with the numbers in the Burial Register.

Maybe someone can offer an explanation.

Many thanks, Eric

If the number indicated a grave why so few? Shouldn't everyone buried there have a number?

I notice on the records from 1811/12 those marked with a number in the 1st column include the comment "Grave purchased by ...". Those with a number in the end column (seem to say "in -/-) don't include a reference to purchasing.

Haven't time to check a bigger sample at the moment.

The Graves with Numbers seem to vary page by page. On some of the pages I've looked at, most of the entries appear to have a Grave No. However, some burials appear to have been in 'Common Ground' and are shown as such. I guessed that those without a Grave No. were similar burials.

A lot may have been dependant on who was making the entries
