[edit] Research TipsThe villages of Swinton and Amotherby are parts of the parish of Appleton-le-Street in the North Riding of Yorkshire. They are all situated on a road heading WNW out of the town of Malton. Swinton is closest to Malton, followed by Amotherby, followed by Appleton. If the church at Appleton ever had a graveyard, it is no more. Parking for worshippers in the 21st century is of greater importance. Some gravestones are arranged around the wall. Amotherby has a church (described as a "chapel of ease" in records) and a considerable graveyard. Leading from the graveyard is a footpath marked "Swinton, 1 mile". There does not appear ever to have been a Church of England in Swinton. This makes me assume that burials for Swinton took place in Amotherby. Although I took a very good look around the graveyard there in 2001, I did not find gravestones for my own family. --goldenoldie 09:07, 7 February 2012 (EST) |
