Vera was not mentioned as Freds sister by my father in law but she could have died in childhood and he would not remember her then is this a possibilty.

Reggie it could even be elsecar or rotherham but I doubt it, I know his brother worked for Earl Fitzwilliam as a stone mason so there is a connection with wentworth

Fredrick Quinney was killed in Malaysia in 1944 but not sure where he was buried he was born 1919 and was married to Gwendolin, will his mothers maiden name be on the records or the place of his birth.
