Many years ago I discovered my Great x grandfather John Bell was buried 8 August 1855 in St James Lower Hutt along with his little grandaughter Jane Bell 20 November 1855.
I went to the church only to find that John Bell/baby Jane were NOT on their lists. {fixed]
More research, moving of the church at least 4 times, and as time went by, tarsealed car parking and buildings over graves.
All my research was forwarded to the church office. Now 30 years later I find the whole item has resurfaced.
More of this information arose and is in my book Melling AKA Stillingfleet.
