That William Long was registered in Westbury-on-Severn not Westbury-on-Trym.
Easy mistake to make!

If anyone has access to burial records for Westbury on Trym, Gloucestershire I would be very grateful if you could look for burials for William and his daughter Mary Ann between 1861 and 1871. William was born c 1825 and Mary Ann the last qtr in 1859. Thanks.
