burial records Bridgetown

I have never heard of burial records for any of the rural Catholic cemeteries. Not one.

I came across deaths (not burials) listed in a parish register just the other day when answering a query. A local Catholic church near me doesn't have burials in a register but they do have a sexton's notebook and I do know that a local woman kept her own list of burials there which covered a span of maybe 50 years or so.

Deaths are not the same as burials - the OP is well aware of the death! Neither of the examples you give is the same as a formal burial register, which exist (or should exist) for council established graveyards, and also a limited number of  CofI graveyards.

I am well aware of the difference between deaths and burials. However, Hallmark and I were just pointing out that sometimes there are deaths recorded in registers. Logically, it would be likely that if a priest kept a note of deaths that he was recording details of parishioners and that they might indeed be buried in the graveyard of his church.

The sexton's record and private journal I mentioned do record all the burials in that particular graveyard for the period covered so would show those buried even if no headstone exists.
