    Hello Gerald

    I have a transcript of burials at Battle cemetery (which is in Marley Lane, Battle) and there is a burial for Leslie Frank Handford on 15 November 1979. He is shown as being age 69 and retired.His grave reference is DB 103. There are no other people with the name Handford listed in the transcript (covers to 2002).
    I hope this is helpful.
    Best wishes
