Harriet, his wife,was eldest dau. of N[athaniel] Bowden Smith of Brockenhurst. Henry wastheir eldest son. (source: Caribbeana Vol:3 page 282)

DEATH of Mr L.H. CUMBERBATCH.-It is with much regret that we announce the death of Mr. L.H. Cumberbatch, which took place quite suddenly, at his residence here, on Monday [30 Nov 1885], the cause of death being apoplexy [stroke]. Deceased, who was 58 years of age, for a lengthened period was the Deputy Surveyor of the New Forest, and he resigned that appointment in consequence of failing health, being succeeded by the Hon. Gerald Lascelles. Although then officially severed from the New Forest Mr. Cumberbatch did not fail to evince an interest in it and its inhabitants, and his continued residence within it was hailed with a great deal of satisfaction. Deceased was very fond of hunting, and in the midst of official and other duties he yet found time to assist in the work of the parish, being for several years one of the churchwardens, while many will remember the brilliant gatherings at the Queen's House during Mr. Cumberbatch's occupancy in aid of laudable objects, charitable and otherwise. Mr. Cumberbatch was one of the earliest supporters of the Volunteer movement when it originated in this country, and for several years held a commission in the Lyndhurst Rifle Corps, being in command of the company during the latter portion of his connection with it. Deceased was highly esteemed and respected by all classes; the poor have lost in him a generous sympathiser and friend, and the news of his death has been received with a great deal of regret throughout the New Forest district, while much sympathy is felt for the members of his family in the sudden affliction which has been cast upon them.
Theres a plaque within the church, on the north wall of the north aisle, that was placed in memory of Lawrence Henry Cumberbatch and his wife, Hattie Cumberbatch with the dates of their death.
