Wow, that was quick!
Thanks so much for this, Matt.  I don't know much about the Towners so most of this was news to me.

Your time is much appreciated.

Hi Matt,
Thank you for the offer.  There are a few names I can give you, ancestors who do not have a burial date as yet:
The parents of Thomas Towner who are

Samuel Towner born 1806 and his wife
Sarah Towner born 1804

also Ann Towner (nee Mearing) born 1832 and

John Mearing born 1767 and his wife
Hannah Mearing (nee Crockford) born 1775.

I would expect all these burials to be at Shinfield.  If you can help, that would be great.

Thanks,
Lavender.

Samuel Towner was buried at Grazeley on 7 Mar 1882 aged 81 years
Can't see a Sarah Towner or Ann Towner

The only John Mearing I see as a contender is
John Towner buried at Grazeley on 25 April 1823 aged 61
17 Jun 1819 Hannah Towner buried at Shinfield aged 48

I shall transcribe all Mearings at Shinfield for you

Hi Matt,
I hope you don't regret saying that!  I noticed on your last but one message that you wrote John and Hannah "Towner", did you mean John and Hannah Mearing?
The children of James and Jane Mearing were 8 girls and only 1 boy (George born 1835) so likely that their surnames would have changed.  In case any died at a young age, I'll give you the names anyway:

Ann Mearing (born 1832) married Thomas Towner - you've already looked for.
Eliza (1837)
Emily (1839)
Elizabeth (1841)
Sarah (1841)
Hannah (1844)
Theresa (1845)
Martha (1847)   

Also, the siblings of their father James Mearing (born 1806) were:

John (1794)
Josiah (1796)
Fanny (1799)
Harriet (1801)
Sarah (1804)
Joel (1809)
Charles (1812)

All these names and dates came from the IGI, and all were born in Shinfield as far as I know.  Thank you so much for offering to look, and thanks also for the information already found!

Regards,
Lavender.

Yes I meant Mearing when I said Towner

SHINFIELD ST MARY
Joel Mearing 31 Jul 1844 aged 36 of Wargrave Union House (dod given)
Charles Mearing 3 Dec 1889 aged 81 of Shinfield
Elizabeth Mearing 20 Feb 1842 aged 3m of Shinfield

I can't see the other Mearing Girls as they probably married - I will check BMD registers for hubbies
