East Bergholt burials

Over 1,300 burials for East Bergholt in Suffolk, from 1682 to 1727.

And that’s the last of my East Bergholt transcriptions. Look out for more transcriptions from Birch in Essex, plus many more Suffolk transcriptions!

The image above shows all that’s left of the tomb of Anna Parker of East Bergholt, who died in 1656. She was the wife of Henry Parker and the daughter of William Cardinall and Mary Derehaugh. The camel on the right was the Cardinall’s crest. The bear is presumbly that of the Parker’s. You can just about see the remains of her painted coat of arms in the middle, with a huge number of quarterings, but sadly they’re barely visible now.
