These letters appear occasionally against other entries in the Register in the years around 1887. In at least one case they are entered as L.H. Rees. Usually, they are associated with a correction or addition to the entry. In the two cases in question, it might be the addition of “West Dean” to the original entries. There are newspaper references to L.H. Rees which indicate he was a senior curate at St Mary’s during the relevant time. His name appears as the officiating minister at many baptisms. He later became Vicar at Kirkdale, Yorkshire.
