Hi I just noticed your Post.   you might have already found this article

https://www.walesonline.co.uk/lifestyle/nostalgia/graves-reveal-pembroke-docks-200-year-old-8131967

where it states
"Owen has donated a proof copy of the Garrison Cemetery book to the Pembroke Dock Heritage Centre and also wishes that his remarkable and very large database becomes part of the Heritage Centre’s Archive."

Owen helped me many times in my search for my families history in Pembrokeshire, he was a wonderfully fellow.
