Looking for the burial of John Massey of Over Tabley, Shoemaker, baptised St Mary Rostherne 1698,son of Richard Massey.

Has 6 children baptised at Rostherne 1730 -1745 to wife Sarah--- and of Over Tabley.

2 burials at Rostherne but neither probable.
Not found burial for Sarah either.
Nearest alternative Parish church at this time may be St John, Knutsford, any suggestion please?
