Thank you I'd found that same burial information for Alfred, so at least my eyes haven't been completely closed :-)
Love the news info, defiantly sounds like a few in the family ;-) lol
Was just hoping to find a baptism on Alfred to confirm his parents ;-/
Thank You so much for the info on Elizabeth (Bennett) would it be common for them to use their "step" maiden name on children's birth certificates and their actual birth name on the wedding certificates?

Thank You again
Sarah

Yes that's Olive, they had 4 children

I know Frank had a son eho I have been told way Roy but no other info

Ivy married Erick Hepworth and had 2 children

Doris married Jack Danes and had 2 children

and Charles had a daughter Jean

This info has all been told to me from family and is something that i need to go through to confirm dates and even spouses in some instances
The nice thing about my grandmother whom is 83 is she can tell me things but sometimes it's names there known by not what they were necessarily born as lol
