There is a communal grave in Ince Cemetry for stillborn babies. Years ago when babies where stillborn parents weren't given the option of holding them, taking photos, taking footprints etc as they are today and funerals weren't arranged for them as they are now. Hence a communal grave. This may not be the answer you were looking for, but i know it's 1 answer. R.I.P

I thought that may have been the case as there were no names or anything personal left there. I found it so sad walking past this and when i next go I will leave a little token.
