Memorial inscription
unknown
Whilst at Lincolnshire Archives I consulted a book written by one of the vicars in which a plan of the graveyard is shown with sketches of some of the graves, but I can't find the stones. I think he might have stopped before 1811. However, I have a sketch of the grave of John Popple's mother, Elizabeth.
