Flintshire Lookup Requests / Re: Burials in the parish of Hope in Flintshire
« on: Saturday 09 March 24 15:00 GMT (UK)  »
The ref that I gave in my Reply #1 gives the details for inquiries. There's nothing mentioned on FindaGrave.

You could also try https://newspapers.library.wales/   to check for a report.

Flintshire Lookup Requests / Re: Burials in the parish of Hope in Flintshire

There's no notation in the margin of the entries so, from what I can tell, it would be either  St. Cynfarch Churchyard or Hope Old Church Yard. Old Hope was opened in the 1860s so it is most likely to be St. Cynfarch  Churchyard.

Add -there is a local expression 'Live in Hope, buried in Caergwrle'

My best guess is Cler = Cleric and A.M. is a form of M.A. (Master of Arts - possibly Oxford/Cambridge)

graduated with a B.A.in 1673 and an M.A in 1676  (Oxford. Alumni)

It looks like it maybe the Oxbridge M.A. where you are awarded an M.A. in circa 2-3 years after first graduating. ? in those days??

are there any signs of you being related on more than one line?  I have quite a few as my father's side were in the same broad area for many years.
