Yorkshire (East Riding & York) / Robert Salkeld - death/burial (circa 1785?)

Please help me demolish this brick wall    :-\ - >:( -  ??? -  :'( -  :(

I am looking for the death/burial of Robert Salkeld.  He was baptised in Brough-under-Stainmore, Westmorland in 1706.  He served as an Excise Officer and took the  Sacrament in Patrington, ERY in 1730 and served at Hornsea, Cottingham, Gargrave, (WRY) and Hull.  He was living in Hull in 1760, where he was referred to as a Schoolmaster.  In 1782 he was referred to, in a 'Dade' baptism entry at Wentworth, Rotherham, as a 'farmer' (of Excise) of Sunderland.  His wife was called Elizabeth.

Looking for the deaths/burials of Robert Salkeld (b.1706) and his wife, Elizabeth.  He was an Excise Officer from Westmorland who served mainly in East Yorkshire but in a 'Dade' baptism entry, in 1782, was referred to as 'a farmer of Sunderland' - a farmer being a collector of tax and excise.

Derbyshire / Chesterfield Graves.
« on: Tuesday 31 January 12 16:33 GMT (UK)  »
It appears, on Google Earth, as though the grounds of the Chesterfield Parish Church (St. Mary and All Saints) have been grassed over.  After a 10 year search I have now reason to believe that my 4th Great Grand-Father was buried there, in 1827.  Can anyone tell me if the graves would have been removed, and where to, or would they have been simply grassed over?
