rolt968 Posted 11 April , 2019 Share Posted 11 April , 2019 Does "Alternative" mean there is another memorial somewhere in the parish? RM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mbriscoe Posted 11 April , 2019 Author Share Posted 11 April , 2019 Just standard field in a RCAHMS record, often places have several names or have changed name so they list the alternatives so they will be found in searches. I believe it is now de-secularised. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
