Selected Mayoh Monumental Inscriptions at Walmsley Unitarian Turton

Mayoh Monumental Inscriptions at Walmsley Presbyterian, Turton, extracted from WALMSLEY UNITARIAN CHAPEL MONUMENTAL INSCRIPTIONS at Bolton Archives (Ref: B929.5B WAL).  There are three and a half pages of Mayoh entries in the index, so I only had time to record some of them here.  The index pages are at the bottom of this page.

Mayoh Monumental Inscriptions at St. Annes, Turton

All Mayoh entries in ST ANNE'S CHURCH TURTON MONUMENTAL INSCRIPTIONS (Ref: B929 5B) at Bolton Archives.  Some of the church yard has been cleared, so some of these grave stones may no longer exist.
