All Saints, Castlefields, Shrewsbury.

Can anyone out there help me please?

I am looking to find out what happened to the church/grave yard at All Saints in North Street, Castlefields, Shrewsbury. I had family buried there and on a visit to Shrewsbury last Saturday to locate the grave, I was met with a church in a built up area.

Does anyone know where it was located and if any gravestones where saved.

Thanks

Astra

Hi Astra.
I have lived in the castlefields area of Shrewsbury for over 50 years and I used to go to All Saints church. I can,t remember there ever being a graveyard attached to the church.Castlefields was in the parish of Saint Marys, I think it is possible that your ancesters are buried in Saint Marys churchyard which is in the town centre. What are the names and dates you are looking for?

Hello Vienna,
I am looking for a John & Elizabeth Ellis who both died around 1884. They lived in North Street.
Thanks for your help.

Hi Astra.
I used to live just around the corner from North street, in Queen street, when I was a child. It is a lovely area with a strong community spirit. I,ll keep an eye open for your ancestors graves and if I find anything I will let you know.
