I am trying to find descendants of Edding Foster who moved from Oxford to Cardiff sometime between 1881 and 1901. He may have married either Lily Ritter or Amelia Thomas in 1903.

Researching:
Foster, Leake: Buckinghamshire and S & E Engand

Lindy,
Thanks for the information, I will try to obtain the death certificate of Edding junior. If he also married with children, they would be my distant cousins.
regards
Leslie
