William Woan was born in Preston Lancashire 1907 and died still in Preston 1973.
He was the son of William and Patience nee Robinson. William and Patience married at St Matthews Church, Preston in 1897. I’ve been trying to find a marriage for the son William but had no success at the moment. I wondered if fresh eyes could have a look please. It might be that he stayed a bachelor.
Thank you.
