Thanks Up North

That makes sense now. I didn't think the Will would be wrong

Many thanks

Could I have another pair of eyes on this
I've got a London Will for a Georgina Caines who leaves her Estate to Harriet Louisa Ellen Wrigglesworth who is her married daughter. This was in 1931.

I've searched for a marriage and can get a link Dec qtr 1901 Southampton but can't match up to Harold Wrigglesworth.

Any ideas?

Thanks
