Church History This Cemetery or Burial Ground was founded about 1779, but we understand it was closed before 1881. Maps of 1881 show quite a large Burial Ground, enclosed by the bend in Breach Road; however by 1916, it is restricted to a smaller area, adjacent to Breach Farm. In the present day, this small area appears to have been preserved, but the remainder of the original plot is occupied by modern housing. The Derbyshire Ancestral Research Group have transcribed the burials here for the period 1779-1812; and to all accounts, there was also a Meeting House associated with the Burial Ground. This is referred to in Arthur William Davison's book Derby: its Rise and Progress as predating the Meeting House in Derby, erected in St Helen's Street in 1808; so possibly the one in Codnor was closed shortly after that, as only the Burial Ground is marked on Old Maps. Denomination Now or formerly a Cemetery (Quaker). In most cases this will be a record of its original consecration. Maps This Cemetery was located at OS grid reference SK4105147680.

Search Tips:

You can specify either a Place, or OS Grid Reference to search for. When you specify a Place, only entries for that place will be returned, with Places of Worship listed in alphabetical order. If you specify a Grid Reference, Places of Worship in the immediate vicinity will be listed, in order of distance from the Grid Reference supplied. The default is to list 10, but you can specify How Many you want to see, up to a maximum of 100.

You can further refine your search by supplying other search terms.

• You can specify entries with ('Yes') or without ('No') photographs.
• You can specify a church or chapel's Dedication, to restrict entries to those containing the term you supply as a dedication. So for instance, 'John' would return 'St John', 'St Mary and St John', 'St John the Divine' &c.
• You can specify a Street address, and likewise 'George' will return George Place, St George's Street, George and Dragon, &c.
• You can restrict the search to classes of Denomination. The exact denomination is always shown in the results, although the search is for broad types. Thus you can search for 'Methodist', but not 'Wesleyan Methodist' or 'Primitive Methodist'. 'Multi-denominational' includes Ecumenical Partnerships, and 'Miscellaneous' means anything not covered by other broad classes.
