Burials – Wickhamford, 1813-1978, Church of St John the Baptist
From 1814 the new style of pre-printed parish burial register was used. The last entry was in 1966; by then, the new Parish Council Burial Ground, which had opened in February 1957, was being used increasingly for burials.
Information obtained from monumental inscriptions or from the Parish Magazine reveal that, after 1966, there were a few burials or interment of ashes in a family plot in the churchyard: Theodore James Moisey (1969), Jesse Colley (1969), Gwendoline Emma Hancock (1976), Vera Winifred Lawley (1978), Ethel Colley (1978), Avice Marguerite George Murray-White (2000), Derick James Mitchell (2001), Arthur Raymond Bailey (2002), Barbara & Robert Sprintall (1994 & 2004).
In the final "Notes" column, the notes are as written in the parish register, unless they are in square brackets, in which case they are Badsey Society comments.
