Identity of Church : Ockley

There is a cemetery category [[Category: Ockley church, West Sussex]] - perhaps not too well named - Could be Holy Trinity Church, Ockley or even St Margaret's Church, Ockley.  It has one profile.

It possibly needs correcting by someone with better local knowledge.

I should also note there is also : Category: Ockley Cemetery, Ockley, Surrey - different county, but neither can be found.

It appears to be St. Margaret's.

May I put in for a name change?

Its in Surrey; though on the border with Sussex. The 'cemetery' would be the churchyard of the parish church,St Margaret  https://www.british-history.ac.uk/vch/surrey/vol3/pp150-153

(as a wealthy lady she may have been buried in the church itself)

see also  http://www.visionofbritain.org.uk/place/5608 which mentions G Artbuthnot had property called  Elderslie

( edit have found the entry in the burial register for St Margarets and have added it to the profile)

There was a manor called Ockley in West Sussex, on the NE outskirts of Hassocks in Keymer parish, a few miles north of Brighton.

I'd like to see a primary source for this, as people might be just guessing.
