Obituary
It is with very deep regret that we have to announce
the death of Mr. Charles Parks Ovenden, who until a month ago was a well-known
licensed victualler. He had been in failing health for some time, and retiring
from his business he went to reside at 29, Joyes Road, Folkestone, where he
died on Wednesday.
Mr. Ovenden, who was 59 years of age, was the third son
of the late Mr. Stephen Parks Ovenden, a highly respected Folkestone resident.
He was for a number of years a solicitor`s clerk in the office of the late Mr.
Harrison, the Town Clerk of Folkestone. For 20 years he was a member of the
Parish Church Choir. In his younger days he was a keen football player, and for
some years he was the goalkeeper of the Folkestone Football Club when they were
an amateur side and played on the Park Farm ground, other members of the team
including Messrs. Sidey, Billy Harris, and J.S. Clark.
The deceased leaves a widow and two sons, and with them
and his brother and sisters the deepest sympathy will be felt in their sad
bereavement.
The Funeral will take place on Monday at the Folkestone
Cemetery at Hawkinge at 2.20 in the afternoon.
