All born and probably died in the Seal, Leigh, Brenchley, Malling, Tudeley, & Capel area's of kent. - late 1700's to very late 1800's

A bit of a wild card I know, but someone out there may be researching this line and have some info.

Any help appreciated.

Graveyards and Gravestones / Re: Help tracing a grave
« on: Sunday 12 July 09 21:34 BST (UK)  »
He was born in Deptford, London, the same area as he died, and lived all his life in the area, albeit at several different addresses.

I have tried the local newspapers of Lewisham, via Lewisham library to see if there was an obituary notice, but to no avail. Even the coroners inquest papers are no longer available.

I have also tried Honour Oak crematorium, outside the area, but the nearest crem. at the time, as the local one did not open until 1956 or thereabouts.

Although the address where he died was then called Brockley, it is now under the banner of Lewisham, as is Deptford.

From the newspaper reports of his suicide/inquest, it appears he was living with his daughter - not sure who's house it was, his or his daughter's but I would think she would have seen he had a marked grave, but if cremated, there would be record.

Hi
I am trying to trace the burial place of my grandfather, who committed suicide on 18th August 1950, resident at Shardeloes Road, Brockley (Lewisham) at the time.
His name is William Henry Field, b. 02/04/1885.

I have newspaper cuttings of the inquest, and have contacted Lewisham Library, cemetaries and Honour Oak crematorium, but to no avail.

Any further help, suggestions would be appreciated.

Michael.
