St. Margaret of Antioch Churchyard, in the village of Wellow in Hampshire, houses the Nightingale family burial site. The church was established in 1215. Though Florence Nightingale’s family was offered a state burial at Westminster Abbey, her family selected their home parish. Hampshire is a county on the southern coast of England and its county town is Winchester. It is also known for its connections to Jane Austen and Isambard Kingdom Brunel.
