Re: Family History Research

I was unable to find John Norman's gravestone in St Bartholomews Churchyard in 2016 nor was John H. more recently. However, I have just found this entry entry online courtesy of Find A Grave https://www.findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?page=gr&GSln=norman&GSfn=john&GSby=1790&GSbyrel=in&...
