Online book that has been digitised in Uni of California has reference to my researched family of the Pursgloves of Sussex.
There are only 12 stones now, as they have all been moved to the outer edges of the church, with many now missing.
But what was the reference dissenter?
I know that they were firstly members of the CoE parish church, then went on to form an independent chapel, so could this be what they mean?
In another part of this quiet churchyard, there
arc twenty-six gravestones in rows, evidently bearing
record to the memory of one family. The name on
them was that of Pursglove—"
once," said the clerk,
" the Pursglovcs were well known here ; and they are
all gone. They were farmers, and all of them were
dissenters. We have no Pursgloves in this part of
Sussex now."
