Link: Brothertoft, St Gilberts churchyard Memorial Inscriptions

[An65]

All remaining gravestones at Brothertoft Churchyard are online at Find A Grave website, or via Ancestry. I personally photographed these pictures and put them online as a free resource.

Brothertoft church was not a parish church but a chapel of ease to Kirton Parish until 1922. The chapels registers date back to the 1680s.

More information can be supplied if interested.

Thank you for all your hard work An65. Lots of details there in addition to the photos. You wouldn't think there would be so many headstones in such a small churchyard.

I haven't found any direct relatives, but there's a sister of a great-aunt who married into the family, plus a couple of names I've made a note of 'just in case'.

I was able to give additional information regarding family relationships thanks in part to Lincs to the Past, Ancestry, and local knowledge, as well as location of graves on existing gravestones from earlier generations. I looked into the villages history and it has a very colourful one for such a small place, so its been a very interesting ride.
