Info from Alan Harris

Hello Keith,Following the query about George Jackson Churchward's burial place, I looked at Christ Church, Swindon burial database on line and came up with the following:-
Additional details: Record number: 4770
Name: GEORGE JACKSON CHURCHWARD
Date of death / (age):/ ()
Date of burial:  22/12/1933
Grave reference number:  S /0067D-
Book number: 02/17/00168    4770
I think this might settle the matter, so it appears that at Stoke Gabriel that the headstone is a memorial only. Kind Regards  Alan
That settles it Alan, many thanks for your time and trouble
