Gravestones in St. Paul, Walkden, Lancashire
« on: Friday 09 August 13 18:22 BST (UK) »
After reading, "Do not ask someone to go take a picture unless you're sure there is a gravestone there," does anyone happen to KNOW whether there are standing headstones in the 1925 era at St. Paul's (off Manchester Road) in Walkden, Lancashire? I tried calling the Vicarage to inquire, but got no answer.

  Just in case anyone reading this happens to KNOW, the grave I am hoping to find is that of Thomas Collier Marshall, my husband's grandfather. Born in 1900, he died in Sheffield Royal Infirmary in September 1925 (of TB), and his body was taken home to Walkden for burial on 25 September 1925. We would love to hear from anyone who is also searching for Thomas Collier Marshall, and particularly anyone who would like to take a picture of his grave for us. We are in the USA, so cannot go ourselves!
