Hi Mike, Thanks for your advice. Her name was Sarah TURNOFF - although it's usually spelt TOURNOFF. Informant was William KEAY whom I believe to be her brother.

Hello Lee There is no trace of TOURNOFF or TURNOFF in the Shropshire Burials Index at the present time, neither is there any trace of a grave stone anywhere in Shropshire for either spellings. If your ancestors were Church of England then I would suggest you start by looking at St Mary's Church records, Whixall. There was also a Methodist Church and a United Reformed Church at Whixall, both of which had their own burial grounds.
