My great grandmother, Emily (MILLS) RICHARDSON (1849-1933), is buried at Ladywell Cemetery in Forest Hill, Southeast London. She is said to be at grave number 2211aA. I wish I could get a photograph of her gravesite, however, I did find this link to some photographs of the cemetery.

Hi
I’m not sure if I’ve messaged you before, but I could try and take a photo if you know where it is in the cemetery? I’m a founding member of the (new) Friends of Brockley and Ladywell Cemetery.
Let me know if you want me to look for you.

Polly – I would be so thrilled if I could get a photograph, however all I know is that she died in 1933 and is buried at grave number 2211aA. Thank you so very much for your interest.
That’s ok … will be a couple of weeks as I’m still recovering from pneumonia at the moment but I’ll get a map and find it for you
Can you email me the details to polstarphotography@gmail.com
thanks

Hi Neddy
I came across your website by chance i too have my grandmother in Ladywell cemetry, Ladywell Road , Ellen Elizabeth Feaver her grave no A 1943 B .
I would love to get in touch with someone who could take a photo of the plot, i have never seen it.
I am doing my family tree and Ellen has caused me many a headache.
I am going to email Polly to see if she could find it for me.
Your site is brilliant

Hi Neddy,
Just wanted to fill you in on the latest on my Mills family tree research in Australia.
I managed to find lots of information regarding the death of Emily Alice Mills – wife of Allan Mills (8th child of John & Mary Ann Mills), who came out to Australia with his brother Alfred John Mills, my great grandfather.
I found that Emily did suicide in the Yarra river after her only daughter had died six months earlier. I have a copy of the inquest into her death with statements by her sister and Allan. I also have a list of her and Allans other children.
I also have the other 5 children of Emma and Alfred Mills which I did not pass on to you last time.
Anyway, just thought you might be interested.

Thank you so much Jenee. Does the fact that you name her “Emily Alice Mills” mean that her maiden name was “Mills?” The Mills family seemed to marry cousins a bit so I would not be surprised.
I have an Alfred MILLS and a John MILLS as children of John & Mary Ann. Do you suppose they are the same person, as I notice your great grandfather is “Alfred John MILLS.” I did not think they were one person.
Yes, I would be most interested in the additional details of this family and thank you for continuing the research.
