Lots on J B Dykes found by googling. In 1875 he seemingly went to Switzerland for his health. No one seems to have Susanna, Ethel or John in 1881 though.

Touchingly, he shares a grave with his youngest daughter, Mabel, who died, aged 10, of scarlet fever in 1870. Dykes's grave is now the only marked grave in what, in recent years, has been transformed into a children's playground.

It is contrary to site guidelines to post multiple threads about the same topic

It is also very annoying.
