Hi Jay

If you are still looking for these, try Maidstone Library where they have the old newspapers http://kent.gov.uk/LibrariespublicUI/OpeningTimes/LibraryDetails.aspx?id=52

Hi Jay

Just to add to Casalguidi. The Library in Faith Street does have local newspapers on microfilm but if you intend to visit in person then book a filmreader.
The chances are that burials would have been at Sutton Road Cemetery in Maidstone and there are burial records on microfilm for that cemetery at the Centre for Kentish Studies just 15 minutes walk from the Library. The original burial records and plot maps are held at the Vinters Park Crematorium office across town.

Thanks for the info Linda.

I'm nowhere near Kent so unable to visit myself.

They were indeed buried at Sutton Road Cemetery, a fellow rootschatter took a pic of there grave awhile ago.
