Graveyards and Gravestones / Wrong Initial on Gravestone *completed*
« on: Sunday 08 August 10 16:30 BST (UK) »
I unearthed a bit of a mystery when I found a relatives gravestone at St Botolph Church, Banningham, Norfolk. I know that it is him because the dates are right so is his regiment and regiment number, I also managed to find the grave listed on another website which told me his parents names which are also correct... Just wondering why he has the wrong first initial?, could it be something as simple as being known by another name?. I have found his birth on the free BMD index which says his name is Felix and I have also recently purchased his death certificate which also says his name was Felix. The initial on the gravestone is J. Has this ever happened before?.
Many Thanks
