There is some information on the Woodheads here, Julie:
https://archive.org/stream/annalsofc...earch/Woodhead page 241 Mention of Joshua page 303 Joshua Mention of Abraham Woodhead as a Reverend and a will, but this is in 1721 so earlier than your Abraham but possibly connected? There is the death of a John Woodhead in 1662, who was bitten by a mastiff! page 493 There is an interesting section on gravestones, but for later burials. |
