About these numbers These percentages indicate the number of Find a Grave memorials that have a grave photo or GPS coordinates. We don't know the total number of burials in a cemetery, so we cannot calculate a percentage of those with memorials, photos or GPS coordinates.

St Mary's Church is a redundant Anglican church in St Mary's Place, Shrewsbury in Shropshire, England. St Mary's originated as a collegiate church founded by King Edgar in the 10th century. The present church dates from the 12th century with later additions. The first major restoration was carried out by Thomas Telford in 1788. Followed by a series of further reconstructions up to the present day.

The churchyard extending to the east contains the plain sandstone war memorial cross erected in 1920 to the memory of the soldiers from Shrewsbury who died in two World Wars. Dr Samuel Butler, headmaster of Shrewsbury School and later Bishop of Lichfield, is buried in the churchyard where his Latin-inscribed tombstone is still visible.
