Tombstone Tuesday ~ St. Mary the Virgin's churchyard, Henlow, Bedfordshire, England

We toured the churchyard at St. Mary the Virgin's church in Henlow, Bedfordshire in September 2017 as part of the General Society of Mayflower Descendants' Historic Sites Tour.  It is the church where the TILLEY and SAMPSON families of the Mayflower worshiped before going to the New World. It is the only church we visited in England that was affiliated with two Mayflower families. I decided to show you photos of this quaint little churchyard instead of just one particular tombstone for today's blog post.
