Title: John Slade, Merchant
Post by: MHA on Friday 19 August 11 12:03 BST (UK)
Hi, I am a resident of Canada.  John Slade, well-known merchant of Poole, Dorset and Newfoundland, died at Poole, Dorset in 1792.  I understand he was attached to St. James Church in Poole.

Questions:  What was the date of John Slade's death/burial in 1792?  Where, in 1792, would John Slade have been buried, and is his gravesite marked with a memorial or stone?

I would be most grateful for any input.
