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.

Friends (Quaker) records indicate "Burton" as the burial ground located in Monk Bretton. This Quaker Burial Ground is located on Burton Bank dating from the 1650s. The land was donated by a local benefactor, George Ellis, and the first recorded burial on the site took place in 1657. Later a small meeting house was erected, which became a focus for local Quakers up until the 19th century. After a new meeting house was erected in Barnsley in 1815, burials took place in Barnsley.
