Hi Roy,
sadly altho I'm from Cinderford I live many miles away, or I'd gladly offer to help you. Hopefully someone more local will be able to help. Meanwhile I'll post the full Burial details as I think the Register notes may help locate the Graves.

I know St John's is not included within the GlosFHS Memorial Inscriptions cd, and despite reading occasional posts on this subject in the past I don't know if the cemetary has been surveyed yet ? I recommend contacting the Church direct, they may be able to help you ?.

This site carries the same contact details, the contact name may have changed but the address & number should be current, I see it's the St Stephen's Vicarage that I used to know & visit as a lad.

Good luck with your request.
