P Williams can be a married daughter of one of Mary's sons, surely? |

Joonie...she did have a son John James who on several census' was shown as James Jr. However I know all about him as he was my husband's grandfather. He married twice but none of the eight children he had was a girl with the first initial P. I will have a play tonight and then maybe it's off to the library on Friday! |

Jude - would there be any electoral rolls at the local library to look up P Williams of 19 Delius Close? - You may be able to see who else was living there to give you something to follow and it may also give her full first name? |

Rhoda's son, but brought up as Mary and James's son? |

Ah yes Joonie got it... so guessing that Daniel J L is Daniel James Lawrence ....I might just have to invest in the birth certificate for him....and P.A. ....guess it is easy to put grand-daughter when it would really be great grand daughter spookie that the other marriage on that entry concerns a Christopher R Hunt - that's my husband's brother's name (though he wasn't thought of in 1934 as his mum was 1 and his dad about a month old lol!!!!!!) |
