Well the report of the death in the Cambria Daily Leader, 27 August 1919, does say that W J Stephens will be interred at Calfaria, Ravenhill

And the same paper on 1 September carries a lengthy piece on the funeral
Military Funeral

It says the clergy were the Rev. Canon J. Watkins Jones, Vicar of Christ Church, and the Rev. J. Oldham Hughes, St. Peter's, Pentrechwyth
