Where is his grave???????

[Lynn H]

I am looking for the grave of my 2nd cousin 6x removed. He is Sir Ralph Pendlebury, founder of Pendlebury's Charity for Orphans. He was buried across from Pendlebury Hall with his 1st wife Susan, who died in childbirth, also with his 2nd wife Dame Ellen. They have been moved and i can't seem to locate them. Any help would much appreciated.  Ralph was born Feb 14 1790 any other information about the family would be great as i dont know much more about them. Thanx Lynn H.

Hi Ricky, It sounds like it may be the same one, but like i said i dont know anything about him. If you can find more i would be very greatful. Can i ask what site you found that on? Thanx Lynn H.

Hi Lynn

On this website, punched his name in the search bar and gives out a load of stuff, just a matter of going through it all and finding the info on him.
Plus if you google his name it comes up with bits of info about him, but not a lot to be honest
