Reasons why the image for this memorial was requested

I've recently began tracing back my family history & I'm aware that my 2nd Great Grandfather may have been from Suffolk or Norfolk. Also I'm aware that he was vallay to the king of England for a time hence my interest on this grave. Although he is buried in Ireland i'm interested as to whether he is a relation of some kind.

I would love to have an image of this grave please. I'd go myself but Sandringham's a heck of a way from where I live in Cornwall! Richard Howlett was actually christened 'Dick'. King George V could hardly call his Chief Personal Valet 'Dick', could he? Well, he is the brother-in-law of my gt.Aunt, Sarah Weedon (Richard's daughter, Mary, married Oswald Brunner. He's the son of Harold Roscoe Brunner of Brunner-Mond Company that became ICI.)

Richard (christened Dick Fred!) Howlett was my great grand uncle. I would very much appreciate a copy of the image as I now live in Cape Town and rarely even visit the UK. Sadly I cannot help with your project, but I try to 'give back' online by entering BMD's for the Familysearch organisation which is very fulfilling. Thank you and your group for your time and efforts.

Richard was my Father's (Leslie Saward Heath) godfather. He took Dad to Buckingham Palace on the royal train, shooting with the King on Boxing Day. Les was born in the Wolferton Station House, my great grand-father was Harry Leonard Saward, who was Royal Station Master from 1884-1924. King George V let Harry retire in the Farm House till he died and installed Edward VII bath and hot water and visited regularly. King George gave Harry the No 1 copy , signed of Imperial Cricket by Pelham Warner. Sandringham library till has No 2, Lords has No 3. I inherited that from Les. Harry married Sarah Elizabeth Hughes the postmistress at Wolferton. Harry was in the Sandringham regiment with Frank Beck. Other Becks represented the King at Harry's funeral in 1932. Harry & Sarah are buried in Wolferton Church, just to the right inside the gate, under the tree. Margaret Agnes Batterbee married Harry's brother Willie Simmons Saward (one of 13 brothers and sisters). My grand-father Alfred Heath married Harry's daughter Ada Louise Saward in Wolferton Church. Alfred was an organist incl assistant organist at Norwich Cathedral. He served in Artists Rifles in WW1. Jessie Saward married Richard Hawkins, Kings Messenger.
