His grandfather and several other relatives are buried at St John's but without the grave number and location and with the graveyard being so large it is impossible to find them. I would love to know where to go to get hold of the actual grave details - is this info actually given on Ancestry?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2555221118428406209.post-64768444654853753142022-08-13T09:46:09.388+01:002022-08-13T09:46:09.388+01:00The parish records may help, not sure where they a...The parish records may help, not sure where they are located, bt digital copies appear on Ancestry <br />Andrew Simpsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12215799385557042486noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2555221118428406209.post-87506282216095631952022-08-13T08:42:21.006+01:002022-08-13T08:42:21.006+01:00Before my Grandfather became the parish Beadle in ...Before my Grandfather became the parish Beadle in 1925 several of his children my aunts and uncles some of which died before their tenth birthdays are buried in unmarked graves adjacent to the boundary wall in Well Hall Road. I must find out where? Part of his duties as Beadle was to assist in grave digging and I do wonder if he had the unenviable job of digging the grave of any of his children.Dave Wardnoreply@blogger.com
