I have messaged via Facebook. I am just waiting for replies now.
Thanks again, Gritty

Arthur :-)

Arthur- you can access your messages at the top of the page. If you don't have a Facebook account I can send them the link for this board if that would help.

I have just read the obituary for Violet. All the information fits with what I have from the UK including Violet's maiden name. The only thing wrong is the marriage date which is a year out - buy anyone can make a mistake.

Hello Arthur- I've sent you a message with the links to the facebook pages for Arthur's Grandchildren. If you have Fabebook account you can message them.

Hope this helps :-)

You beat me to it for info on any children. I will wait for your next post!!

Hi Gritty,
That's great information. The Violet Elizabeth could be right because I have found a marriage for Arthur Duffield to Violet E Garton in Scunthorpe UK in 1946, but not one to an Elizabeth that looked right.
The death information for Arthur and E V Duffield looks good too.
Thanks for your help. That gives me something for a search for any children.

Regards

Obituary for his wife- listing family is here:

Grandchildren are on facebook- will pm details

His death? (Same birth date as above)

I see the Outward passenger list in 1949 travelling to the US with Elizabeth (aged 28)- giving his last UK residence as Bridlington and occupation a Plumber. On the New York arrivals passenger list for the same journey he's with Violet E Duffield (age 28)- so perhaps known as Elizabeth?

This also looks like the same man:

I am looking for living relatives of Arthur Duffield, born 1918 in Hemsworth, West Yorks, UK who emigrated to U.S.A. in 1949, possibly with his wife, Elizabeth. Any leads will be gratefully received.

Regards,

Arthur
