Has your gran been there before? Can she describe where she thinks it is? |

This is the number for Brighton and Hove City council. Why don`t you give them a ring and ask for number for parks and cemetries, and hopefully they may be able to track down your grans ancestors grave. |

Well start with the cemeteries closest to where he lived. Doing a quick google would suggest that Brihton council look after 7 cemeteries. |

See here, it seems they will do a search for £10 plus another £2.50 for a map... |

If he was well-known, have you tried googling him to see if there's an obituary? |

There's probably something about him in the local paper of the time. The local Record Office to the area might have access to those. Even Brighton & Hove Council might have them. |
