Found this burial entry, whilst looking through the PR's for Ibstone, Bucks.

8th Dec. 1702. St.Nicholas, Ibstone.

Edward GOMME, Butcher of this parish.
Richard Cheny of Wallington, a Shoomaker, payed the Clerk 2s for the knell & grave, his wife payd me 1s for the burying him, 6d is behind for the registering.

Sweet.
