Unmarked grave Emma Courtnall (née Flint) (1841-1880)

Emma was born in Berkhamsted in 1841, the oldest child of William and Sarah (née Jordan) Flint. Her father was a bricklayer and her mother was a straw plaiter. The family lived in the High Street. Emma had no brothers or sisters until she was twelve when Elizabeth was born. William Henry followed in 1861. The census for that year shows the family still in the High Street. Emma, like her mother, was a straw plaiter.

In 1863 she married James Courtnall, a Berkhamsted bricklayer like her father. They too settled in the High Street and they were to have three children: Albert (b.1863), Ann (b.1867) and Kate (b.1870).

Emma died in 1880 aged 39 and was buried 3 April. James survived her until 1889 and is buried in this cemetery in an unmarked grave
