Graves of three murder victims in Queen's Road Cemetery
The unsolved Croydon poisonings of 1928 and 1929 when Edmund Creighton Duff, his sister-in-law Vera Sidney and his mother-in-law Violet Emilia Sidney all died from arsenic poisoning was one of the great unsolved crimes of the 1920s. Edmund Duff and two of his daughters who pre-deceased him are in the grave on the left, while Vera Sidney and Violet Sidney are in the grave on the right. All three bodies had been later exhumed. Close ups of the two graves can be seen at
