Hi
Whilst looking on FindMyPast I've come across a very strange flatstone inscription at Stones Methodist Chapel Soyland for my ancestor George Taylor of Soyland born 1799 died July 1835 aged 36 years and 5 months husband of Alice Taylor who died in 1864. I have never found a birth for George, his birth should be early 1799 the nearest I can find is George born to Joseph in Stainland bapt Dec 1799 St Andrew Stainland, which would seem a long time to leave from birth to bapt. There is also a reference to Nanny Wild buried 1870 aged 83 and Sarah Crawshaw, I've no idea who they are, never come across them in my research, has the person transcribing added several separate stones as one inscription I am very confused
