Hello Shirley,
Many thanks for looking,,quite possible he was Arthur James,I just had Arthur J.
,I do know they had a son called Arthur (Ithought his middle name began with a T) may have been Thomas after his maternal granddad, don't know if they had any other children.
Also Jessie had a brother called Cyril whom I cant trace at all.

Hi Shirley,
Thank you , Jessie Holmes ,half sister to my dad,I knew my aunt and Tom whom she married.I even recall going to Jessie (b1931) engagement party .I recall my aunt and uncle(Jessie and Tom ) visiting,and going to their home in Dagenham.I have met on occasions my cousin Cyril(that's what they called him).When ive looked for him I cant find anything at all even looked up Thomas Cyril incase his first name was after his father.From early sixties we lost touch didn't even know when my aunt Jessie died,although I think I ve found that out

As they moved to Essex. I wonder if this is Cyril it could be a shortened version soundwise
