Originally, death date given by Philip (Paris) was 1823. - rhg

Both signed as well as witnesses: Susanna Binden (Bindon?) and Henry Bishop. 4 Oct 1794 By license.
Note from Nick: From 1789 onwards, the burial records were "inspected" on 1st October each year by (Mr. John) Brutton. This practice stopped after 1794. Nick noted that he put "Mr. John" in brackets because his name is written as a flamboyant signature each time and so he could not make out the first name - looks like "Jn" which makes Nick think it's John. However, VERY definitely Brutton. We will investigate further - for this would mean that this Brutton was "important indeed" (within the church.) - nm
