hi all,
a friendly request for assistance. On a visit to high Wycombe cemetery with my daughter and grand daughter, we came across the grave of ;
Henry Rogers (c1865) died 01-06-1929 with wife (marriage unknown) Sarah Ann Rogers (nee unknown) c 1870, died 24-12-1939.
Little to go on I know, but any information would be gratefully received.
Many thanks and kind regards :)

hi JJ
thanks for the information,,, wonder why Henry was in Portsmouth ? The only other text on the grave stone was 'after much suffering . rest' maybe he was in hospital there, who knows ?
I'm gonna try to look for the marriage of his parents Joseph and Ann (unknown) ::)

Hi Pete,
Have you found a death record for Sarah Ann Rogers? As she died on 24 Dec 1939 he death may not have been registered until Jan 1940. As yet I've not found her death ???
