This forum can be educational sometimes. Never heard of Dudeney, but her books sound interesting. I'll have to check one out.

The Wiki article says she was buried in the town cemetery, so it would seem that historyman should start his search there (between Winterbourne Hollow and Rotten Row).

ER I think historyman knows that already seeing as he said it in his first post. The cemetery keeper / or records office would normally have a plan of the graves to assist visitors. Check with the Lewes District Council //www.lewes.gov.uk/community/284.asp

And as an aside - who wrote this tune ??

the council did help by giving me a map and coordinates but unfortunately i still cannot locate it, the picture that is posted here by smiler clearly is her grave but i cannot find it, maybe the council is mistaken by their coordinates : (
independent thinker; she is a very interesting person and the book although much talking personally about friends and family gives a hint of Lewes life and her attitude towards it and her very strong views! and that is why it was mothballed for so long (40 years)

I will find her and her husbands grave if its the last thing I do.
