If I remember rightly I used to go past a welcome to Wales sign at RAF Sealand.
You may need to search both counries.
Who did you think was in the RAF? I did not quite follow.

Prudence was only in her very early 20,s when she had Alice and I think you will find she had both children illegitimately . She has married and her husband has taken her and her children into the family.
Family stories can get very distorted or even made to cover up what isnt wanted to be known.!happens in all families and then they had no idea that in later years records would show what they wanted to cover up.
You can see why the 100 year disclosure was put in place to encourage people to give info with the knowledge that their personal secretts would stay hidden !!

Christine,
The family tale says that Prudence was married twice and lost her 1st husband during the 1st world war. I was assuming the link to RAF Sealand because of this, but from what everyone on there has posted i can see that the story put forward is unlikely to be true.
Once again, i'm really thankful to everyone who replied so quickly and came up with lots of avenues for me to investigate.
I will update you all on what i find as i go on my family quest!
Thanks again.

Hi Rootgatherer,
Yes, That's the Henry White i was looking for, in the 1891 Census.
I have also be told by the family about the Harry/Henry interchange of his name, so that would also help to confirm.
Thanks very much for your help with this.
