I can find no grave or records of Lillian or Wiliam being interned in the Bures Cemetary
Possibly cremated or buried elsewhere
Look on this web site which has multiple images of villagers, do you recognise them here

As i couldn`t find it visually last time, I managed to find from the Parish Records where the grave was located
On arrival I found nothing, but rummaging around in the grass I found a memorial stone laying horizontally
I cleared away all the grass and moss and managed to take a photo
The inscription reads

In remembrance
of
William R Walsh
15-2-1903 - 23.11.1966

Lillian M Wash
10.11.1904 - 11.8.1997
For ever
in our thoughts

I cant be certain of the dates as they weren`t that clear on the photograph, best I could do
