If you can post the GRO index for both Lilian and Arthur, we might be able to have another look.

Not finding anything in the registers or on deceased online for Arthur. I've rarely been able to find free records for people who lived in the Bromley reg.

Where was his home address at the time of his death? Unless there was a strongly held religious reason, by 1987 the majority of remains were cremated.

I am hopeing join ancestry later this week

Not every grave has a headstone. Several of OHs rellies are buried there. We've managed to find the plots (sort of) but there are only depressions in the ground. I don't think there was even a small plot marker.

No harm in asking, although they may make a charge. They're not exactly helpful. I'd asked for a site map to help us find the plots we were interested in. None were available although they did say a groundsman was usually on duty. If they were working on a Sunday, they weren't visible.
Before Ancestry had uploaded the burial registers I'd emailed to request a 'look up'. I'm still waiting for a reply.

If the council aren't willing to assist, let me know. OH loves (not ) visiting graveyards!

thank you very much
I can now email the cemetery asking for photo of the grave of my uncle john Edward
ranson
thank you

Or google cemeteries Belvedere, Kent

Are you sure he was buried or could he have been cremated?

Not seeing the name on the "Deceased online" site

Local papers may have a family announcement.

Are there other relatives of his that you could contact who may know the answer?
