Hi, Just wondering if anyone was familiar with this church and/or lives in Avening or was attending/visiting this church at any time. I have two ancestors John Lowsley and his wife (Mary) Ann Lowsley who are apparently both buried in a vault in the South Transcept of the church. Mary died in 1807 and John died in 1822 and I would love to know if there are any other details to be seen that are written about them in the church somewhere. Many thanks. Nicky

Hi Nicky, if you google you will find a very good website for this church which may be worth looking at. Cx

Thanks Cynthia - I have found the website and have emailed the person who it says has done a lot of work on archiving some of the church records - so fingers crossed!
