The NBI gives one 62 year old Samuel Gratton buried at St Giles Matlock, on 5 April 1870 - age and quarter match the freebmd entry. Matlock is in the Bakewell district.

There's another Samuel Gratton buried at St Luke Heague, on 15 Dec 1870, but he was 77years.

Is it right that Winifred died in the same quarter ? - buried 5 Mar 1870 at St Giles Matlock
