That is excessive for a digital download  ::)

It is possible that they could have been buried with someone other than family if the family could not afford to pay for it.  Have you located the graves of their parents.

Rosie,
Who sadly lives too far away to go and look for you.

No havent located the parents of Ada and Frederick's graves yet, their parents are Richard Henry KIMBERLEY died 1985 in Kidderminster, and Louisa KIMBERLEY died 1965.

William's parents  at buried in Kidderminster from what I can gather as that was were they were living

You can also check out Find A Grave and request headstone images.

Not all graves actually have a headstone and even if they do they may not be legible but it is always worth asking.

We did just that on the site for a cemetery in Brooklyn and someone took images and attached them to the Find A Grave record for us.
