Monumental Inscriptions from the churchyard of
St Mary's Church Thornbury
These monumental inscriptions within the churchyard of St Mary's, Thornbury come from 3 sources. The earlier ones were included in the collection made by Ralph Bigland, a Garter King of Arms in the late eighteenth century. Others were transcribed by Mr and Mrs S. F. Pitts of Thornbury between 1985 and 1988 and added to by George Mills, also of Thornbury, who also drew up a plan to show the position of the graves. The excellent work of these people has been invaluable to residents and of course to visitors to Thornbury who want to trace their family roots. We have entered them in this website to make them available to a wider audience. We have verified them where possible, but some have obviously deteriorated further and we are grateful that transcriptions were taken in time. We have added photographs that we took in 2006.
