On Eb*y......one day left are 38 love letters/postcards between these two during WW1. Cheap at £17.50.

Found them both on 1911 and lived at 7 & 9 Parkhurst Road Manor Park Essex.
Seems they were childhood sweethearts, they did marry after the war.

Does anyone recognise them ?

Not seeing children from the marriage searching Freebmd - perhaps that is why the letters are being sold?

There's a Sheppard Family Tree on Anc*stry but i can't access the tree owner.
Kate is there but no Charles Abrams.

Following Choccy's probate post above I would like it to be noted that I played no part in the death of Charles Thomas Abrams.

Researching:
Current avatar is Marie-Celeste de Villentroy

I am sure you would have played no part MarieCeleste....you are much better at finding the dead than the dying (I hope!)
