Having had some very useful help finding Grandad's cousins on Finding Ancestors, can anyone help me with potential living relatives please?
http://www.genesreunited.co.uk/boards/board/ancestors/thread/1336790

Rev Bertram Peachey Strangeways married Ethel Sophia Jobson in 1900. Their daughter (only child?) Ethel Faith was born in 1901. She married Norman Stoate in 1935 and their (only?) daughter Gillian M Stoate was born in 1936. Can anyone tell me more about Gillian please?

And Ernest Strangeways married Louisa Moseley in 1901 and their (only?) daughter Agnes Grace was born in 1902. Can anyone find out anything else about Agnes please?

Oh, thank you for that Kath. I did check on free BMD but it doesn't show up to that date.

It looks as if Bertram died before the 1911 census as Ethel seems to be at a school in Harrogate as a matron in the 1911 census described as a widow.

If this is correct for Ethel Sophia in 1911 she has been widowed and crossed out (as incorrectly entered) is that she had 1 child born and 1 still living

EDIT - will delete census as already posted by Kathleen and won't look for the Reverand's death which was my next move!
