Trying to trace relatives or information of John William Dickinson, born in Hull Sculcoates area in 1900 and married Doris Eleanor Glover and lived Sutton Street, Spring Bank Hull until he died in 1959. They had 3 children George, Doreen and Audrey.

His mother/step-mother was called Brierley and believe she committed suicide.

He worked in a paper mill until he signed up for the army in the first world war where he lost his leg, in his latter life he worked at GPO on the telephones.

Doris and John brought up a girl called Nancy born to an Ada who got pregnant whilst in service.

George Dickinson moved to Notts, Doreen moved to London and Audrey remained at the house in Hull.
