Member Since: November 2014 Posts: 2 Send Message	Hi Patricia Mary Dainton (Nee Walker) here. Daphne was my dad's cousin. Not sure if she is still alive though (Dad died in 1984) I have a sister called Daphne Malvena Walker (poor cow lol). I am one of 6 although my older brother (Frederick Everett named after Dad) sadly died in 2012. I have other brothers and another sister. Lesley Henry got his middle name after Dad's brother - Henry William. Grandad was Frederick Thomas Walker and Great Granddad was Henry [James] Walker. Regards Trish
