Churchyard Help Needed

[DeanneandTony]

On a Family History graveyard visit last year we took two photos that I can't identify the churchyards.  It think they are either Wyddial or Watton at Stone (Cambridgeshire) but just can't remember.  A building is fairly prominant and some of the graves are clear.

Names on graves include Bet Atkin, Stephen Hutchinson, George Frederick Dolby, John Edward Peirson, Albert Lambert, Gerald Michael King, John Henry Stafford Moule.

If anyone can help I would be greatful

Hi

If you have any dates for the names you mentioned, you may be able to narrow it down via deaths on FreeBMD etc..

www.deceasedonline.com has a George Frederick DOLBY who was cremated on 02 Apr 1985 at Cambridge Crematorium (Cambridgeshire) .

Also a John Harry Moule on 13  Dec  2004 also at Cambridge Crem.
That seems to fit with the death of a John Henry S Moule aged 94 registered in Cambridge in Jan 2004.

Any use?

Hi

Carol, Great.

Next problem is that both Wyddial and WattonatStone are well and truly Herts, not Cambridge. (The online fotos of those two churches that I found don't give a clue)

So, Deanne, where did you go in Cambridgeshire?

Sorry I can't identify the cemetery but one of the headstone's is for Frederick Henry Day and his wife Harriet.

FH Day died 23 Dec 1997 at Mundesley Holiday Camp, Paston according to the website here:

Possibly the website owner knows where his father is buried 

Edit to add:

Try looking at both churches via Google aerial/street view. That building is rather distinctive and you might spot it from the air.

Well spotted Ray (trust me not to read all the text  )

I wondered what the round building was and found the following quote:

"The Dovecote, located to the North West end of the churchyard of the Parish Church of St John the Baptist, Somersham is a Grade II listed building, believed to be late 18th Century."

So, Deanne,

You said there were two churches that you couldn't identify.

The second one is . . . . . . ?
