Lord Nelson's father Edmund presided at the 14th century Church of All Saints for eight years, before going to Burnham in 1755. Nelson's brother William was also a vicar there. There are several memorials to the Nelson family in the church, and Edmund and Catherine's first two sons, Edmund and Horatio, are buried next to the altar. Nelson's contemporary, Wellington, lived for a time at Hilborough Hall.
