1 Buried in St Andrew’s, Cotterstock
2 It is not surprising to find that some of the grooms worked on the railways. Oundle station was opened in 1845 and initially took three trains a day rising to 6 in 1883. In 1923 it became part of the London, Midland and Scottish Railway. Crossing cottage in the village was originally two cottages for railwaymen.
3 It is intriguing to think how did the Metropolitan Policemen discover the Cotterstock ladies?
