Hello Everyone from Australia,
I wonder if anyone who lives near St Nicholas could look and see if the Caslake family graves are still visible. I know Samuel (d 1831) and his wife Elizabeth (d 1816) are buried there with their son Samuel (d 1854) and his wife Sarah (d 1866). Also their son Devereux (d 1878 )
Samuel and Elizabeth's daughters Sarah Greenaway (d 1860), Elizabeth Young (d 1860) and Mary Hall ( d 1861) are also buried there and possibly daughter Barbara Caslake (d 1883). Barbara donated money in her will for the upkeep of the graves and money for 12 poor folk each year to buy coal.
All help very gratefully appreciated. I contacted the Church a few weeks ago but as yet have no reply. Many thanks, AMH
