Can someone clarify under what conditions someone who had committed
suicide WAS buried in consecrated ground. I have a case last century
in an English churchyard and wonder whether an insanity verdict was
necessary. The person concerned had only recently moved to the
district and had no long-standing connections with the place.
Furthermore, I believe that there was a municipal burial ground
available. Nonetheless, he was buried in a consecrated churchyard.
Apologies for this being a 'modern' question.
