The graveyard surrounding Nantenan church contains the
graves of both Protestants and Catholics. Headstones of note in the
graveyard were in memory of the Rev. Thomas Royce (possibly Boyce -
the inscription on the headstone was quite worn), who died in 1747,
aged 43, and also a headstone dating from July 10th 1777, in memory
of John Welesh, aged 22 years.
