If you subscribe to Ancestry you can see the parish register at http://www.rootschat.com/links/01ief/
The burial won't have been in St. Mary's churchyard as this closed in 1851, so it would be p robably in Wemdon Road Cemetery.

I just read a section of the Wembdon Cemetery page saying they can't locate paupers grave but they would be in the St Mary's consecrated plot , where ever that is .

There are two sections to this cemetery, the Chapel Portion and the St. Mary's Church Portion.

The Paupers burial site is known, but it is not possible to identify an individual grave.
