Grave H - K
During the late 1920s the gravestones at Whitechapel had the inscriptions recorded by a chap called Arthur Blackburn, who traveled the district widely with his notebook and pencil. His records are available to view at Bradford library. Unfortunately, Mr Blackburn was rather prone to making mistakes, so all his work has been checked against the original burial records of the church to identify any likely errors. His original work has been retained and anything of a suspicious nature has had a note attached.
