Hi
Thanks for reply. I have read the article in the Bugle which in itself is interesting but I am hoping to find more specific detail.
I suspect some of my early 19th century Haynes' died in an outbreak.

A person should have an opinion on everything, It becomes tact whether you reveal that opinion or not.

Talking to my dad who lived at Hall lane Farm Netherton he told me that the bodies were buried in the Parish Ground on Netherton Hills, before burial the bodies were kept in the outbuildings at Netherton Hall.
