Memorial Inscriptions

Following my recent visits to Waters Upton (in October 2023) I have many more photos and transcriptions of memorial (or monumental) inscriptions to share, so this section of the website has been greatly expanded. It now features MIs in the churchyard, inside the church, and in the cemetery on River Lane.

Here is a full index, by surname, of all the MIs across the above three parts of this section:

A (Armson x2) | B (Ball x5, Barrow x2, Batho x3, Baxter x2, Beaman x2, Bennett x6, Blantern x3, Brittain x2, Broad, Bromley x3, Brown x2, Browning, Buckley x2, Buttery x5) | C (Carter x 2, Cartwright x 2, Challoner x2, Corbett x2, Cornes, Cotton x3, Cox x4, Coxill x2, Cureton x2) | D (Davies x 13, Davis x 2, Dickin x7, Driscoll x2, Dugdale, Dulson x2, Dye, Dyter x2) | F (Fisk x2, Fletcher x2, Foulks) | G (Gibson x2, Green x3, Gregory x3, Griffiths x2) | H (Harper x2, Harris x2, Hatton x2, Higgins x3, Hill x2, Hobson x3, Hodnett x2, Hopkins x2, Hughes x2, Huxley x2, Hyde) | J (James x6, Jenkins x3, Jones x 5) | L (Lambart, Lawrence, Leatham, Leech x3, Lewis x3, Lloyd x2, Ludlam x2) | M (Maddocks x2, Madeley x2, Martin x5, Matthews x3, McCusker x2, McGonigle, Meakin x4, Meredith, Moore, Morgan x18, Morris x4, Mullard, Mundy x2) | O (Owen x5, Owens x3) | P (Pascall, Phillips, Pollock, Powell x2) | Q (Quin x2) | R (Rawlings x4, Reeve, Richards x5, Rider x2, Ridgway x5, Roberts x2, Robertson) | S (Shepherd x2, Shuker, Sims, Stacey, Swinnerton) | T (Taylor, Tennant, Thornton x3, Tinsley, Titley x2, Tompkin) | W (Walker, Wase x7, Watkins x3, Wellings, Williams x7, Wood x2, Woolley x10, Wootton x2, Wylde x4, Wynn x2) | Y (Yardley)

Please note: names enclosed in square brackets – [example] – are of people who were not, as far as I know, living in the historic parish of Waters Upton during the period covered by my study (up to WW2), for whom only MI abstracts are provided. Also, names of surviving relatives who I know or believe to be living, are redacted in both images and transcripts / abstracts.

1 thought on “Memorial Inscriptions

  1. Hello thank you for everything that you have done. I am related to William Woolley and Louise Harriet Edge (1794-1881) and it has been lovely finding so much information in one place. Their son Samuel Woolley/Wooley 1826-1865 was a soldier at the Indian Mutiny, and involved with the 32nd Foot in the Defence of Lucknow (May – November 1857). He was injured and although he did not die until 1865, it is likely that this contributed to his cause of death. I wondered if you found any information on who benefited from the money raised in the parish for those involved in the Indian Mutiny? Also whether you had come across anything in the church mentioning him? Samuel is my great, great grandfather.
