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.

Sold to the Sharju Restaurant in 1980 (conflicting dates). "A notice about the gravestones was pinned to the church door inviting people to claim them if they belonged to the family. Many of the headstones were not claimed and they were broken up and dumped in the sea at Morecambe Bay."
