Looking for My Paternal Grandmothers first husband Henry or Harry Drake born late 1880's or very early 1900's wife's name Rosina Barber born London late 1800's they had a son Harry. They possibly married 1913.
I believe he went to war ww1 and was killed at Hill66
Rosina went on to marry an american Robert Johnson
Desperate to find details of him,
Regards
Christine Bright (nee Johnson
