Snow of Chittlehampton
- Chittlehampton
Am looking to make contact with a resident genealogist of Chittlehampton who wouldn't mind having a look there in the graveyards for a Mary Snow buried sometime after 1861 she would have been about 80 years old at the time.Mary had a son Jonathan that would have been buried sometime later as he was 35 years her junior.The graves are most likely to be in the Methodist Chapel cemetery if they are to be found. I live in Canada and would try my best to do something here if needed. Please be advised that some places in Ontario where I live are more than a days drive from our home in the south of the province. Perhaps it would be wise to make your request known ahead as I would hate to disappoint.
