I'd like to take this opportunity to thank everyone who replied to my =
query about missing graves and gravestones. I was pleased to be given =
the explanation that my cemetery visit had been to the 'new' cemetery. =
That explained a lot. However, if there is an 'old' cemetery (other than =
the graveyard attached to the church) I'd be grateful to know its =
location. Or when did cremation start at Wedmore? I have a sizeable =
number of death certificates for ancestors who died in Wedmore since =
1840 and it puzzles me considerably that I haven't managed to find any =
graves or gravestones for them. I can't imagine that the Fishers were =
unique in this respect, in which case it must be of concern to all of us =
on this list who are interested in our Wedmore ancestors.
