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.

"St. Paul's Burial Ground is just opposite Wolvendaal Church on the other side of the road which skirts the back of the church. It was consecrated on May 29, 1821, by Bishop Middleton. Though next to Wolvendaal, it was the churchyard of St. Paul's Church, which was opened on September 1, 1816, consecrated on September 25, 1821, re-opened on July 5, 1846, having been rebuilt after a fire, and was much in favour as a church in the forties and fifties."
