(# should read Darius not Daniel, I'll submit a correction request).

I think Henry dies in Gloucestershire in 1969 wrt Ancestry Free search pages.
NB: Take care not to confuse with another William Henry Meredith also in Ruspidge and with similar age & marriage dates.

Why did he die so young ?. I cannot find an inquest for him (mining accident?) or an entry in this site's WW1 Soldier database, or the CWGC site for WW1 Graves.

Possible burial for Mary Eliza MEREDITH, PERHAPS ?, correct age but ??
