Just to save time for everyone i have all the records for the mellor family all by one,and we dont want to go there as we have never ever been able to find her it drove people up the wall looking for my g,mother so have give up on that one ,and my mother she was named after her sister Ada May as she died when she was 6yrs old

Dutch,
He must have changed his occupation, because on the 1911 he is a shop assistant.....the one I found on migration...was an engineer....of course he could have fibbed!!!!
