Margaret remarried in 1923. Was she listed as a widow then?

I assume your friend's grandpa was John?

Births Jun 1920
Prinsen John Callaghan Toxteth P 8b 290

He had a older brother Henry who died before he was born.

The page his birth is on is missing from Ancestry and FreeBMD but it's on LancsBMD.

Joanie, have looked and can't find him anwhere. I have nudged a thread which deals with Dutch ancestry - should now be near this one. It's called:
Tips Board: Born in Holland 1825
Hope it helps!
