If I'm understanding Susan's post correctly, it was Dorothy who married a Tommy.





EDIT:

(Deleted wrong marriage - correct one below, but won't post ref nos, as so recent)



Dorothy L Hopson (mms Stanford) was born in Romford 1940.

She married Thomas J Bridge in 1961 in West Ham.

You can find the details on FreeBMD, Susan.

Iris is Betty's sister - not immediately apparent from the request

Betty is not her given name - I would imagine this is her birth

Hopson Amelia B Stanford Stepney 1c 347

Two further siblings - births on freebmd

Births Dec 1929
Hopson Iris G Stanford W. Ham 4a 99

Unless it was a nickname, or he was a second husband, Iris didn't marry a 'Tommy'
