Thanks Little Nell. No headstone photo though (very unlikely as she was the wife of an Ag Lab).
Contributor not taking messages on findagrave so no help there. Seems to me that they knew she was in Wynford Eagle on the 1881 census & assumed that she is buried there, could be right though? I'm still holding out for proof positive.
I have hit this problem as well with regard to a family that lived in a small rural community. The records that I would love to see are well over a hundred years old but the vicar is holding on to the registers as 'there is still room to enter current events'. I have even asked the vicar if I can see the registers in person (at his convenience) but I was told 'sorry not possible at the moment etc ....'Did he give a reason? I hope it is a temporary situation and he will let you see them eventually.
However I have also come across a bio of one of my relatives attached to the wrong person. Same name, different person, place and dates. I offered proof and asked for it to be corrected but was ignored.If this was some time ago you might like to try again. The edit system on findagrave has been updated and you can now submit edits for all fields on a memorial directly. The memorial manager has 21 days to address the edits, after which the edits will be processed automatically.
