No problem we will track it down!... Valda is right though the cemetery is huge there are around 35,000 burials there best way is if you search and contact lewisham council they then will do a search for you and hopefully a map of where your GG grandfather is buried they charge £30 for the search .. then I can go get your pictures :-) also seach for Brockley and ladywell cemetery (NWKFHS) they have some trancriptions listed.

Oh wow isn't this amazing ... Yes I have the pictures of the graves too thank you Margaret  and  original newspaper clippings from 1883 reporting on Henrys sad death..
 You seem to be at exactly the same stage as me although last night I managed to find the ship and year Thomas, John and George sailed on and there seems to be a book that includes then - the ship was 'Rakiai'.. The book if you can find it is called 'The Farthest promised land'
I'm going down to Monks Horton (first time and wish you could come with me) tomorrow so I will take lots of pictures and see what I can find out :-)
 Try again .. My e.mail - (*)
Love Elaine
