- "Buried in woollen" refers to the Burial in Woollen Acts of 1667 & 1678. These Acts were attempts to protect the English Wool Trade, and required that all bodies should be buried in wool with the exception of those who died from the plague. A £5.00 fine was imposed for burials which did not comply with the Acts. If a family were poor and could not afford a woollen shroud, the entry in the register may have the word 'naked' written in it. The law stayed in force until 1814 but was usually ignored after 1770.
