Title: Seaford East Sussex - any help please?
Post by: libbs on Saturday 13 February 16 15:22 GMT (UK)

I have recently found my grandfather's brother Reginald Clifford GODFREY died in  a place called Seaford East Sussex. I have just found a burial inscription at St Leonard's Church in Seaford online. I wondered if anyone goes to this church at all, whether they would be willing to take a photo for me of the memorial stone? I have no idea when or why he left Cardiff to move there. If anyone was able to look at obituaries for around the time of his death I would be very grateful, just in case there was one, as it may lead me to more information about him. He died I think on 26 August 1972, and the certificate says at Brighton Royal Sussex Hospital. He was born 2 June 1896. Thanking you for any help.

There is a  'contact us'  http://www.seamig.org.uk/about.htm  - it may be worth asking there
