Just so happens I'm planning to go to the archives tomorrow, Jay, so I'll have a look, although the last time I was there the books for 1944 and 1945 were temporarily unavailable.
Oh that's great Kite, thanks :)
Margaret Hannah & Jane Elizabeth were both elderly spinsters so i'm hoping they left very detailed wills!
Thanks again
Kite can I be cheeky & add another one please.
Hannah Oliver (from the 1901 thread) died Dec 1/4 1919 Durham
Thanks again.

Thanks Kite thats great :D:D
I've got an Alberta Banner Thompson in the tree but not married her off yet so that's that done!
Also now I know Edward was alive in 1943 that will help find his death.
Thanks again :)
