In the churchyard of St Mary & All Saints, Whalley, Lancashire, are two gravestones which bear interesting dates.
One has the name Ann Crowshaw with the date 31st April 1752, and the other Jacob Green with the date 30th February 1819.
I would be interested in any explanation of these unusual dates.
And are there other similarly puzzling dates in other country churchyards?
