On 23rd October Shirley Stallard (nee Lacey) contacted us and wrote "I've just revisited this site after some time and am most impressed by the many improvements made.

Terry Leslie Lacey was my younger brother, born on Feb 3 1943 at Ryde.

Thank you for adding the Obituary to his page as I didn't have it.

Ena READ, buried in the same grave, was his mother's sister, born 1906 who died, age 25, in 1932.

I didn't know who Charles Tansom [also buried here] was. It was something of a mystery! But I now believe it may be Charles Tansom, age 32, buried here in 1879 and very distantly related to my mother by marriage. Whether this was known at the time of Ena's burial or a coincidence, I can't tell."
