Quoting from his Wikipedia article (featured today on Main page of Wikipedia)
“A memorial to Mackintosh exists on the grave of his mother Annie in the graveyard of St John's in Burgess Hill in West Sussex. The memorial also mentions two of Mackintosh's brothers who died prematurely in Thailand and Southern Rhodesia and a sister who lived into old age and died in 1962.” Brenont (talk) 12:53, 4 January 2023 (UTC)Reply
Thanks – I've found a reference, which I will add to both articles. I will reword the text above because it is close to/identical to the wording in the source. Hassocks5489 (Floreat Hova!) 13:03, 4 January 2023 (UTC)Reply
