Ash Cemetery, Surrey

[2] The first meeting of the Board took place shortly after on 19 November 1886 in the School Room at Ash when the Reverend Walsh was elected Chairman.

The building of a cemetery chapel in 1889 cost £540 which was financed by a loan from an insurance company.

The stained glass window memorial in the chapel to the Great War was the gift of local benefactor Henry Morris Chester of Poyle Park.

Manfield also had the responsibility for collecting the cemetery fees and paying them to the Parish Clerk.

[3] There are 20 burials with the distinctive Commonwealth War Graves Commission (CWGC) headstones, with eleven burials of casualties from World War I and nine from World War II, including two members of Royal Air Force aircrew: Flight Sergeant George William Voice BEM (1906–1945), and Flight Lieutenant Alfred Alexander (1914–1940)[5] who died of his injuries following an accident while flying an Airspeed Oxford.
