3. SWALLOWE, RICHARD, of Hare Street,A hamlet near Romford within the Liberty of Havering atte Bower.* 18 Nov., 25 Eliz. Husbandman. To he buried in the South SideFor many centuries there was, in England, a strong prejudice against being buried on the north side of the churchyard, and that portion was usually reserved for the reception of suicides, excommunicate persons, unbaptized infants and those who had been executed. The place of honor was at the east end against the chancel wall (see will No. 6). This prejudice is mentioned by Arnot in his History of Edinburgh. In the "Wise and Faithful Steward" (1657) it relates "he requested to be buried in the open churchyard on the North side to cross the received superstition as he thought of the constant choice of the south side."* of St. Edwards in Romford.
