    Abstract

    Based on the evidence of surviving tombs and probate records, this article looks at perspectives on death and commemoration in the Welsh borders in the crucial period of the Reformation. It concludes that the evidence for the survival of belief in the validity of prayer for the dead did not necessarily conflict with a willingness to accept other aspects of religious change.
