Many thanks for the offer but I do have a photo of Alfreds grave.

 If memory serves me right it is in an overgrown part of the church yard and doesnt actually have a headstone as such, it is one of those grave monuments that surround the plot and is engraved on the sides. I believe that Annie Evison is in the same plot (his wife, my GG Grandmother) and next to it is the unmarked grave of my Great grandmother Mabel Mettam (Mabel Wilcoxon whos parents owned the Harrows pub at North Hykeham) and her stillborn child (as she died in childbirth around 1920).

My Grandfather and I spent the day there clearing the grave site about 10 years or so ago as it is overgrown.

It would be nice to see how it is now, however I expect it would be heavily overgrown again.

Hi,

In reply to the Question about Alfred Mettam, I think you might be on about my Great Great Grandfather Alfred who ran the Plough Inn at Bracebridge and Married Annie Evison (my Great Great Grandmother).

Alfred Mettam died on the 15th of May 1930 and I have been to his grave which I believe is at North Hykeham. (I do have a photo somewhere).

If anyone has any info I would love to hear.

Christopher Mettam.
