Do you know who will hold burial records for 1940 for this church or where the burial ground might be for this church. We are trying to trace my husbands brother Christopher Robin Griffin who we believe had his funeral service there as his parents were married in the church. As he was only 3 months old.

Response from WSHC: The Church Record Book (ref: 4324/2) is held at the Wiltshire and Swindon History Centre and contains the register of buriels. Unfortunately there are no records for burials between 29th Jun 1934 and 26th April 1941. Burials either side of these dates either took place at the chapel itself or at Monks Chapel in Corsham.

Hi Gary, you can see an image of Father Supple (old Priest of Corsham's Catholic Chuch) here: https://www.gazetteandherald.co.uk/news/10210488.canon-john-alphie-supple/ I was one of his Alter Boys in the late 1960s! Regards, Julian.
