Leckhampton cemetary: Those who had served the British Empire in India are well represented. Many are military, but there are civilians too. James Cox, of Thirlestaine Hall, and George Nevile Wyatt, buried in adjacent plots, had both made their fortunes as indigo planters. The widow of the latter, Mrs Augusta Wyatt, was patron of both the Leckhampton churches at the beginning of the 20th century.

George Nevile Wyatt and his wife Augusta Warren Wyatt (d.1905 aged 81) lived at
Lake House in Thirlestaine Road (now owned by Cheltenham College and renamed
Southwood House).15 George Nevile Wyatt had been a churchwarden at St Luke's,
Cheltenham, but in 1884 their daughter Annie married the Reverend William Clifford
Aston, a son of the Vicar of St Luke's. In 1894 the patronage of the living at
Leckhampton was up for sale, and was bought by Mrs Wyatt (by then a widow).
When there was a vacancy in 1895 she was thus in a position to arrange the
appointment of her son-in-law as the incumbent. This act of nepotism was perhaps
forgivable, as Clifford Aston brought energy and good fellowship to the village. He is
best remembered for inspiring the building of the Parish Hall as a centre of its social
life.16
