Christchurch Memorial Inscriptions (Announce)

We have been to this graveyard today and we searched and searched for my cousin's 3 x great grandparents in the Voice family and could not find their graves along the West Wall. It also looked as if old graves have been used to put new people in with new headstones.
We were very perplexed over why we could not find them and now we know why.
How dare the Church Council use the headstones for paving stones. As someone in this thread said it is not their business to get rid of the headstones. They should have been left propped up against the wall.
My cousin has come all the way from New Zealand to do family history research into her Voice or Voyce family who came from all over the Forest of Dean, this is going to be very upsetting for her when I tell her in the morning.

I think she will want to find the address of the Church Council and write to them.

What a disgrace.
