Following on from a query about being buried at night without service, I googled to find info and stumbled upon www.rebus.demon*co.uk/wos_br.htm which is Annotated Burials at Westbury on Severn 1889 - 1895 Even if you have no relatives in that area, its worth reading to get an idea of the times. Lots of sad notes about twins buried in the same coffin, unbaptised babies having a prayer said over them, etc. nell
