I don't see a marriage of Wilfred Brown to Ada Batchelor/Bachelor.

What clue can you give us? Rough ages? Possible place of marriage?
Where have you found their names?

EDIT:
Ah, you mean Ada was your grandmother?

So -
was your mother born 1925 in Portsmouth? [ EDIT: no, forget that ]

Thank you for all the work you all have made here, very much appreciated indeed.

The Bachelors are a complete mystery to me, Ada , but her daughter Edith was my mum.
