Great, just been on FMP and found the death for William age 16, as well as finding the mother and 2 daughters in 1939. But by finding little Alfred/George I had given up on even deleted him from my tree so he can be reinstated.

Thank for your help

Trying to find what happened to these 2 brothers (they may not be)

George Walkley b 1858 near Stroud Gloucestershire, married Kate Sophia Crew in 1883. Kate died in 1950 Leicester.

They certainly had 3 children
Ann Elizabeth b 1884
Carry b 1887
William b 1889
All 3 born in Wotton-Under-Edge, Gloucestershire
A 4th child Alfred George b 1892 Leicester. These details I found on the Gro Record site naming the mother's surname.
Sometime the family moved to Leicester between 1880-1911, they are living there in 1911, with the 2 daughters living at home.

Cannot find any definite information on the 2 brothers William and Alfred. Not sure if Alfred is a brother but knowing the family moved to Leicester a strong possibility with the mother's surname Crew.

Any help would be appreciated
