W.E Hearn 1872--1927

W.E. HEARN
LATE P.W. INSPECTOR E. I. RY
BORN 25TH SEPT 1872 
              (at Bareilly)
DIED 12TH JUNE 1927
AGED 54 YEARS 8 MONTHS 17 DAYS.
                         ***
(William Edwin was the son of James Hearn and Caroline Harriet Hague : Details from Lynda Troidl)


This grave was in better condition when I saw it earlier! There was a Charles Hearn, retired N.E.R. foreman, if I remember correctly and I thought he'd be able to tell me who  W.E. was to him but dementia had set in and the next is he shifted to Patna, Bihar where he died not long after getting there. He is survived by two daughters from his first marriage and his son Errol, from a second relationship. His son John from his first wife who had retired from the Indian Army and settled in Gorakhpur died in a scooter on Nov 1, 1994 long before his father. He was buried in the spot that he saw when he visited the cemetery a day earlier!
