Surrey Lookup Requests / Re: 'Lost' graves in or around Peaslake......

Well as a matter of fact I did get his phone number!  He is such an interesting chap having lived here all his life.

I'm not able to send PMs until my post count goes up a bit but in the meantime I will give the chap a ring to get some more information.  You posted a photo of Ethel on another thread so I could print that out for him (may not be tomorrow as back at work and may be over run). 

I don't know of Firs Cottage, Peaslake where you mentioned Ethel was born,  but most of the houses here are very old so highly unlikely it has been demolised, maybe renamed. 3 East View is still around as I cycled past it on my way back from the Church!

Will be in touch again as soon as I have found out further info.

Hi Jake Drummond!
This is a strange first post but I encountered your thread whilst googling Hound House Road!
I read in your other posts that you were making the long journey down south a couple of years ago - did you solve your mystery about Ethel? 

I live in Peaslake and intrigued by your post and having nothing better to do on a Bank Holiday evening! cycled up to the graveyard at Peaslake and had a walk round.  There is a grave Winifrid Cooper, died 1976 age 72 but more importantly I met a Cooper descendant.  Ethel Cooper was his aunt (he is 75) and related to Winifred.   He was sure Ethel was buried there but it was quite late to go looking.
Peaslake is a very small village and even today is occupied by many members of long established Peaslake families so the Coopers would not be forgotten.
Hope this is helpful.
