| 1: | Thomas and Ann are buried under the floor of the church and, if there is any inscription it is covered by seating and carpets. Their infant son is almost certainly buried in an unmarked grave. |
| 2: | The above information is taken from the headstone, and from Burial Registers for St Michael and All Angel's Church held at the Lancashire Record Office. |
