John is probably buried in the Ind/Congreg Ch, Upper Gornal, although this has not yet been confirmed. Mary Cartwright (RIN 150) stated that Eliza Ann (John's wife) was brought back to this church for burial in the family grave, so it is assumed that John is buried there too. However, Bill Adams could find no burial entry for her husband, John Westwood. Eliza Ann was listed as Elizabeth Ann on the burial entry.
