Hello everyone

Thank you all so very much, have nearly all the info I need. There is another mystery person who lived with my husband's father George and his brother Herbert, sons of Walter and Fanny. I am trying to find out who she was, she was Cis Summers, could she have been from Walter's first marriage. Will keep trying.

Regards all.

Joyce

There does not appear to be a marriage for Elizabeth Emma Johnson to Walter.

Having said that, there does not appear to be an appropriate marriage for Walter to an Elizabeth E......... anyone!

You might need to purchase the marriage cert to see what marital status it gives for Walter when he married Fanny.
