Well unless he is in a public grave. It's unlikely he would be in a family grave if not related.

Do you haven his actual death cert as that may help with info

I found a burial for a friend but it has an individual that I am not sure who it could be. His name is EDWIN SIMMONS and the burial states 1940 and him being 86 years old. So he was born in 1854 (possibly Shropshire judging from FreeBMD) but I can't make assumptions, he may be the father of Margaret Jane Miller nee Simmons who is also at the grave... Help would be appreciated on clarifying what relation he is to MARGARET JANE MILLER (born 1879 in Cardiff)
