Does anyone know this Mel Gingell?

Warmley Tower Methodist Chapel

Brenda Flook needs our help. She writes...

Can you help please?

Warmley Tower Methodist Chapel has been closed for services for several years, there is a quite large churchyard and there are almost 30 Gingells buried there.

The Methodist Church is now looking to “sell off” the building, but before doing so would want to “remove” some of the monuments and grave surrounds in order that car parking could be provided at the front of the building, and also would like to “tidy up” the rear graveyard.

I knew that my Great Grandparents were buried there, but I have now found that my Great Great Grandparents are also buried there, along with various other members of the family. (Some of whom I had not yet discovered in my research – so there will be more names to add to the tree)

There are some who are more closely related to others in the tree, and there are some who do not appear in our tree, but following your premise that “all Gingells are related” I guess that they must be part of the family, especially as they all lived in the same area (Oldland Common, Warmley, etc).

Anyway, I know that our relatives are “six feet under” but I am extremely unhappy at the idea of topping them off with tarmac and parking cars on top of them. When you consider that many were only children when they died, it makes my blood boil, and it makes a mockery of the old saying “Rest in Peace”

If you could give this some publicity on the website I would be grateful.

If anyone feels as strongly about this as I do they can email me and I will pass on their views, or, they can make contact directly with the Vicar:

Rev. Andrew Prout – Tel. 0117 932 6692

I have attached photos of the Chapel and a spreadsheet with a list of the names involved.

They are, of course, all Gingell, the first columns I have transcribed exactly from the church registers, the last 2 columns are the Gingell.com ref (where there is one) and finally my comments (if any).

I hope you can help.

Best wishes

Brenda
