Many
parks and green
spaces have been
formed by church
graveyards and public
cemeteries.
Graveyards
can give us an idea
about people in
the past from the
information carved
on the gravestones.
Gravestones can
tell us how long
people lived, who
was married to whom,
which families lived
in the area, which
families were wealthy
and what were the
common causes of
death.
This
activity
is
designed
to
be
printed
out
and
taken
with
you
on
a
visit
to
a
graveyard
or
cemetery.
