Longhorsley Lookup please
« on: Tuesday 23 September 14 00:10 BST (UK) »
Hello, i would be most grateful if anyone could help looking up Longhorsley headstone/ burials for me for surnames Henderson and Kirsop. Any found are very likely to be my direct ancestors. Im currently stuck at a point in my tree where the Longhorsley connection could allow me to move backwards again. Many thanks

I have the monumental inscriptions and can see 4 entries in total.  I'll type them up and come back

Don't forget that these will not be complete - there will be others not covered in the burial index and many who did not have grave stones
