Thanks very much for your help I am still not sure which ones are the parents but I think Edwin maybe the one, I am sending for my grandparents marriage certificate which will tell me the fathers name, I know they married at the church of the resurection in 1900 the same one as William and Mary so I am still not sure I will get to the bottom of this eventually
