Definitions of terms in 18th Century Burial Registers
« on: Tuesday 30 June 20 22:59 BST (UK) »
I would appreciate clarification to be certain I'm interpreting these terms correctly.  They appear in early 18th Century burial registers from St Gabriel, Fenchurch (London). 

  • "buryed in the Tabernacle Ground" -- buried in the yard at the original St Gabriel
  • "buryed out of the Parish" -- a congregant or resident of the parish who was interred somewhere else, perhaps in the City
  • "buryed in the Country" -- was that outside the City, or generically anywhere too far away to identify?
All information appreciated!
