In Dec 1919 when George was released, they were still at the address giving on his enlistment. He was obviously injured as he was given a weekly pension of 12/8, due to some kind of problem with his left hand - 20% disability.

Thank you Flip :-D :-D :-D

Hi Wendy,

There's a tree on ancestry which has more details on your Emily after their arrival in Canada, belongs to jackiehuggins1. If you don't have a subscription you can view it on the mundia site which is free, although you need to register.

Has a death for their son Eric in 1978, and it shows Edward around up to 1965.

Thank you Flip that's great I'll go onto mundia I have already registered with them :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D.

Thank you also for everything you have done for me.

Wendy

Hi Flip,

Had a look on Mundia but doesn't tell us any more than we already know and I think she has copied some of the Branfoot details from my tree on Ancestry.


Wendy
