There is also a grant of Probate, "HAMMOND, Charles William of Weston Park Nursing Home, Moss La[ne?] Macclesfield, died 20 Sep 1991. Probate Liverpool, 14 Oct 1991". The CWGC could try contacting the Nursing Home to see if they still have any records, and/or obtain a copy of the Probate which should have details of Charles's Executors.
(1) Janions of Cheshire, Lancashire, Hawaii, Vancouver and Seattle.
(2) Gregorys of Tarporley, Cheshire.
(3) Pughs of 'The New Pale' near Frodsham and Delamere in Cheshire.
(4) Nevills of Llanelly, Llangennech and Felinfoel.
(5) Yaldens of Ovington/Lovington in Hampshire.

Unfortunately, with the new GDPR regulations CWGC are unable to instigate contact with anyone without their permission  :-\
