Name: Jane Maria Bumstead

Died on: Thursday, 12th September 1940

Died at: 41 Alfred Road, Clive Vale, Hastings

Additional Information: Jane Bumstead, aged 82, died when an unknown number of bombers dropped 150 incendiaries on Clive Vale, including on Alfred Road and Edmund Road. One other person was killed in the raid.

I was unable to locate Jane’s grave marker in the main area of WW2 war graves, so she is likely buried else where on site. I will look to find it when I revisit Hastings Cemetery.
