Monumental Inscriptions of St John the Baptist in Margate Churchyard
« on: Sunday 20 February 22 05:40 GMT (UK) »
I was wondering if there were Monumental Inscriptions from St John the Baptist churchyard, in Margate?

St Lawrence in Ramsgate is here:

St Peter in Broadstairs are available from the Kent Family History Society

Monuments, inside St John the Baptist Church in Margate, are here (link below), but doesn't include any historical inscriptions from the churchyard:

Yes, but with not much luck for pre-1800 inscriptions for the churchyard.

I was hoping there would have been a complete transcribed record, similar to the St Peter's, monumental inscriptions first published in 1786 or the Charles Cotton list of inscriptions (from 1895) for St Lawrence.
