Re: Shearman burial site and religious affiliation
Dave,
Thank you so much for you speedy and very helpful response. I was at first confused by the death and burial dates of Mary Martha until I remembered that English date conventions are different from those in the US. Now it all makes perfect sense!
I'm actually quite surprised that the Shearmans were affiliated with the Baptist church rather than the Congregationalists. But I'm delighted that you confirmed my assumption that they were non-conformists. This fact is important to my narrative.
One last question: Does the headstone for Grave No. K47 have any inscription?
