This youtube video in link below will show you the headstones that were put to the side of the church of St John's church Bowling Bradford

(After 5 seconds of advert click skip bottom right in video to bring the St John video to start)
In the video it states the grave headstones were as I said above were put to the side of the church and the body remains in the graves were interred (Reburied) in Bowing council cemetery
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Summing up
Bradford local studies library will have the Blackburn Epitaph memorial inscriptions ('Blackburn' was a male clever tramp who went around Bradford churchyards over many decades collecting gravestone memorial epitaphs ) of St John's church and West Yorkshire archives will have the St John's parish register burials and maybe graveyard burial register records
Hope this info helps any researcher of ancestry of St John's church bowling Bradford
