Hi I am looking for any information about Alice Maud Styles (Stiles), born 1876 in Portsea Island, from what I have been told she was disowned by her family, the only info I have is that she married my father in-laws grandfather George Henry Sanders in 1896, nobody seems to have any idea why she was disowned, any help would be most grateful.

Edward.
