Round Hill is an area of Esher Common close to Copsem Lane (the A244 road). 
I think the Common is managed by the local council, you could try them to see if they have any information.

The 1911 Post Office London Suburbs directory lists the Hulbert Bramley Motor Company (proprietor S. W. Dowglass) at this address. They are listed under Motor Car Engineers, Motor Car Makers and Motor Car Repairers and Garages.

I just put the address into my search engine and this came up.  Hope that helps.

Devon Lookup Requests / Tawstock Parish Records - SELDON

Tawstock Parish Records - SELDON

I have a transcription of a marriage between Christopher SELDON and Jane ADAMS on 10 June 1755 at Tawstock.
'My' Christopher's wife is variously named as Jone or Joan on their children's baptisms and it would be very much appreciated if someone could please look up the actual marriage entry in the Parish Registers to see what her name is written as.

This is my first look up request so I hope I've done it right.

Thankyou in advance.
Sue

Thank you for that information.  Would that mean that a grave without a letter suffix is in the same line, but further back from the road?

I haven't really studied a map of the cemetery - as you can probably tell!

I can confirm there is no reference to Norah Dixon or the names Brooks or Burrage on the gravestone. 
If there is/was a policy of re-issuing graves after a certain length of time and Emma bought the plot after her husband's death that would explain it.

The grave is alongside the tarmac road in the cemetery now, but I don't know how long that road has been in that position.  We would need to see a plan of the cemetery for the years the previous burials took place.

I wonder whether it is significant that John & Emma Nixon's grave reference number has the letter 'A' after the number.

There is a male Ratcliffe aged 50, living on Epsom Common in 1841.  He is a labourer.  Also in the household are Sarah (60) and William (20).  The name has been transcribed as Jos on Ancestry, but it could be James or John!

Hi Robert

I have just emailed you some photos of John Nixon's grave.  Please let me know if they are not clear enough and I will try again!  :)

Hi Robert

I got your PM, thanks.
I hope to get to the cemetery tomorrow, Wednesday, if it's not raining too hard!

According to the list of Epsom Cemetery burials there is no John Nixon listed, but there is an Emma of 20 Heathcote Road, Epsom who was buried on 8 April 1937 age 83 in grave F228A.

I will check the exact gravestone inscription when I go.
