A search facility for the Holy Trinity churchyard

Churchyard Search offers visitors to the Holy Trinity Church website, the chance to search through all the headstone inscriptions in the Holy Trinity Churchyard in Barrow.

In 1981, members of the Womens' Institute carried out a thorough survey of the churchyard and noted down all the headstone inscriptions.

Now, for the first time, the survey is available online, which means people around the world can access the survey information.

Whether you're researching your family history, or just interested in the many varied memorials in the churchyard, Churchyard Search is a must!

As well as the inscription details, there's also a graphical representation of each headstone (based on the WI survey), which provides further details. In time it is hoped that this will be accompanied by photographs of each memorial.
