I am trying to locate the grave of William Atkinson Gardner who died in Newnham in 1855. A newspaper report at the time stated that his funeral would be held at St John’s Church, after which he would be taken for burial at the English burial ground. If anyone can tell me the location of this, and if there are records of the graves, I would be most grateful.
Thank you.

There are no intact graves. I’ve put what I know about records in a comment at the bottom. Hope that is some help.
