Hi Maz

Have you managed to find their last resting places yet?

I think the answer is we may never no.  But Martin has done a great job.

All burials/crematons in municipal cemeteries/crematoria are recorded but with so much choice in the London/Middlesex areas, finding the actual places may take a bit of time.

You might want to consider purchasing a copy of Adolphus's will fom HMCTS for £10.

https://probatesearch.service.gov.uk/#wills

Many wills start with funeral wishes.

If you have contacted the cemeteries team at Hounslow and they aren't there, there is the possiblity they chose to be buried out of the borough at the nearby Twickenham cemetery.

The Book of Remembrance for SW Middlesex Crematorium at Hanworth is online but Adolphus isn't listed on the 28 June but that's not to say he wasn't cremated without an entry in the book.

A number of mine who died Ealing area have turned up in Ealing & Brentford (or is it B&E?) Cemetery.  Ancestry have an index and images of the plot registers, not sure if it's only some or perhaps all of them.
