Hello David
Here's what Gareth Hicks has to say on his help page.
As for the graveyard you don't say where he lived in
the Bridgend area.

Suicide
Until 1823 it was the law of the land that anyone
taking their own life could not be buried in
consecrated ground..
This Act stopped the previous custom of burying a
suicide in the roadway.
It was now lawful for these to be buried in
consecrated ground, although without the benefit of a
religious service.
It also brought to an end the tradition of driving a
stake through the body and throwing lime over it.
