Hello Buckinghamshire
I am trying to find out where Sidney or Sydney Young is buried. or his Will
I have found this record on Ancestry - but I don’t think he’s buried in Medmenham.
He was born in Wiltshire, and somehow ended up working as a gamekeeper in Newton Blossomville in Buckinghamshire - where he could have fathered a child.
My 100 year old father’s DNA and speculative family tree seem to imply he could be my dad’s grandfather. It’s an all a bit tricky as my father was adopted. I have a few old trees on Ancestry with him on.
Name: Sidney or Sydney Young
Gender: Male
Death Age: 57

Death Date: Approximately 1893
Death Place: Medmenham, Buckingham, England

Any thoughts welcome …
