I hope they add up.
That's ok, won't be a exact ratio with these small populations. Radcliffe higher than expected but pick a different year and you'll have different ratios. I was beginning to think they were being buried somewhere else! We have disproportionately less headstones for Radcliffe dead (or they are on stones without a place name mentioned). I think 'Radcliffe' only appears once on the Beach Road cemetery legible headstones, and that is a stone for one of the Beverleys. Again all down to money I guess.
