St Mary's Churchyard

This article records details from all of the memorials in the churchyard at St Mary's Parish Church, Norton,.

Where there is a headstone present but time and the weather have made the inscription unreadable, the burial is marked but the associated details are left blank and annotated,(?).

The numbers recorded against each entry are purely for the purpose of this record and do not indicate any order of burial or relate to the actual plot number.

There are, of course, many hundreds of other burials that have taken place in the churchyard over the course of time where headstones were not erected and the site of the burial is no longer evident.  Unfortunately these can no longer be identified and have not been recorded.

I apologise for any errors in the transcription of memorial verses or biblical extracts, in the identification of names, in the recording of dates, or indeed for any mistakes that may be present.

I have photos of most of the graves should anyone be interested.

I have amended the graphic to form four views of the graveyard which I hope makes the entries easier to read.
