A tree on Ancestry, owner Joan Pendlebury Green, is very confusing. It says that Arthur Roberts married Ethel Violet Green and had daughter Elizabeth Mary Green (1926-2018).
It also says that Ethel Violet married a Pendlebury and had daughter Joan Pendlebury Green (1934-1990).
It also says that she married John Michael Higgins and had son Peter John Higgins (1937-)

Researching:
Great grandmother Dorothy Bean nee Abbott (1858-1908)

Have you traced his wife - AFTER her marriage?

How old was she? Who was her father?

Hi Sandra

When and where was Elsie born?

Perhaps we can find her on the 1939 Register.

Did they have a son Gordon born shortly after the marriage?

Arthur is the son of William James and Martha Jane Roberts.
In May 1927 he married Elsie May Green (Civil marriage, Stoke on trent). Disappeared shortly afterwards. His marriage cert. gives his occupation as "Domestic Chauffeur" and his address in 1927 is 130 Great King Street, Macclesfield, Cheshire. He is at this address with his parents and brother Stanley from Oct 1927-Oct1928. The following Electoral Register shows he is no longer there. His mother had died in Sept 1928.
He is possibly on the family tree of "Joan", whom I have contacted but not as yet had any reply.
Any information welcomed.
