I'm also trying to find some information about Stanley Tolson. I know he married an Ethel Kaye and thy had a son called Roy Tolson who married Cynthia Olwen Wragg. They have two children Susan Elizabeth Pamer and Nigel Tolson. Stanley also had a sister called Sarah Elizabeth Tolson but she idn't have any children.

The way to check if the marriage is correct is to send off for the marriage certificate.
