About these numbers These percentages indicate the number of Find a Grave memorials that have a grave photo or GPS coordinates. We don't know the total number of burials in a cemetery, so we cannot calculate a percentage of those with memorials, photos or GPS coordinates.

The priory of St Mary of Bethlehem was founded in Bishopsgate (near the present site of Liverpool Street Station) in 1247 by Simon Fitzmary, an alderman and former sheriff of the City of London. The names ‘Bethlem' and ‘Bedlam', by which it came to be known, are early variants of ‘Bethlehem'. It is first referred to as a hospital for ‘insane' patients in 1403, after which it has a continuous history of caring for people with mental distress. The hospital has relocated three times, first to Moorfields in 1676 (the present site of Finsbury Circus), then to St George's Fields in 1815 (the present site of the Imperial War Museum) and finally to Beckenham, Kent in 1930, the site of a former country house estate.
