Please can anyone help me to find graves . I have Joseph Exall born 1781 married 1800 and died in Tenterden Kent Jan 1842. He was a Baptist but fell out with them over Tithe s and local Cof E. I have looked in all local graveyards and on published lists of monuments. He was Clerk to Union Workhouse in Tenterden.. Also unable to find a grave for his wife Mary who died Tenterden 1856...so perhaps together.
I have also tried to find a grave for their daughter Rachel b. 1811 and who married Alfred Greenall Greenhill 1833. She died 1845 in Rolvenden Village Tenterden...She was born a Baptist but the Greenhill family are C of E and are buried in Rolvenden Church cemetery. No record for her though.Her children all went into Tenterden Union Workhouse when she died..Husband Alfred not around.

Researching:
Greenhill .. Kent Whitlock.. Wiltshire and Marsden ..Derbyshire and London Exall Spall..Suffolk and Shoreditch London Moss .. Suffolk Dench.. Sussex

I have searched the Latter Day Saints and have Indexing numbers and source film numbers for all three family members now. How do I use these numbers to get grave references? PLEASE sonya

Thanks..I will try again...I think they may have an old disused burial ground somewhere bisected by the railway when it arrived. Probably pulled up the headstones. Do the Parish church record the burials and keep them? sonya
