Thank you
This is the wrong family

Michael, do you have Raymond's marriage and / or birth cert ? If not that is your first step ( unless you have other info on your grandfather you can give us to help?)

If the 1939 register is the right one,then it does look as if Nellie is married to William, not Albert.
