[PB: CHECK - possibly the greatest number of any cemetery in Britain outside London?]
__________
[PB: Presumably the "City Cemetery" would not have been the privately-owned York cemetery, above? I have not looked at this in any detail yet, but it would seem that the modern Fulford Cemetery - "the main burial site for the City of York" - was not opened until 1915, years after Alfred Munday's burial. Check e.g. Fulford Cemetery and here
[PB, 12 December 2017: There are photographs of the headstone and a portrait of William Pearson on the excellent York Cemetery website. William Pearson also features in a "Virtual Military Trail" and self-guided "19th Century Military Trail" (pdf):
William Pearson died in June 1909, the last of four survivors of the Charge of the Light Brigade buried in the cemetery.
At the Charge he received a lance wound in his side and was taken to Scutari Hospital where he was nursed by Florence Nightingale. He subsequently volunteered for service in India where he served throughout the Mutiny. After his discharge from the army he became a turnkey at York Castle where he was employed until his retirement. A firing party at his funeral was provided by the 5th Royal Irish Lancers.
"In loving memory of Jessie B. White. Died April 18th 1931. Also John W. White husband of the above, killed in France August 16th 1916. Also William Pearson, Hero of Balaklava, died June 14th 1909, aged 84."
[PB, 13.12.2017: Th text says "four survivors of the Charge of the Light Brigade buried in this cemetery"? Who are the others? It looks like there are more - are they all chargers? It is possible this cemetery has more Chargers than any other in Britain.Why so many in York? Are there more? A Friend of York Cemetery guides walks. Who is she? Contact her?]
