Looks like Marjory had been married before perhaps? not too sure about this as there are a couple of Cyrils in the area

You can find births marriages and deaths here up until the 1950s

I am searching for Descendants of a Thomas Walton born Sheffield England in 1868. He died 10.05.1917 of the Flu epidemic. Thomas Walton was married to Gertrude Oates. They had 2 sons that I know of, Cyril and Ken.

Thomas Walton was my Great Grandmother's Nephew. Thomas was a prolific writer when she moved to New Zealand. I still have the original letters and post cards that Tom Walton sent to my Great Grandmother and I'd been keen to make contact with any of his descendents with a view to giving you copies.

Looking forward to hearing from you.

Kind regards
