If the Chapman / Jones-Lees marriage is the right one, there was a daughter born 1926 in Thetford.

Think you are going to have to get the marriage cert if you think the one to Chapman is correct

Just remembered I had a few free credits to use on SP but nothing coming up with a double barrelled name of Jones-Lee

No matches using chrisitan names with Jones or Lee from 1895 to 1905

How have you arrived at her name and why Scotland?
