Not Victorian but discovered whilst browsing through the Burial Register.

Robert Little Blaylock 7 Green Sq 3rd Aug 1944 aged 58
Charlotte Blaylock Aug 7 green square 3rd 1944 aged 57 years

Further investigation finds that they died at the Kent and Sussex Hosptial on the 30th July 1944 after their home in Green Square was bombed. It would be interesting to find out more about this and see if anyone else was injured. It is difficult to find much in the papers at that time about local incidents because of the heavily censored newspaper articles. Usually the location is given as 'Somewhere in Sussex'. I think I found the additional information in a small booklet at Lewes.
