Where have you looked for any leads?

Thank-you

Have you looked in Search/Search All Member Trees (Top right) to see if anyone on here has any of your family in their trees?

In 1911, the couple claim to have been married for 11 years, but there is no record of such a marriage,which isn't surprising, as.........................

Florence, nee Newman, was, at the time, married to Mr Penna...................she didn't marry Albert until 1919, as per info posted above

She had to wait for her husband to die in WW1 before she could marry the father of her children

From that 1911 census that I posted, the first son, 'Berter', was baptised as a Penna, as given by rootgatherer, whilst 'Willie' was registered as a Wortley.

..however, in view of the 1911 census for Florence's husband at the time, one would have to doubt that he was actually a Penna

The best way to try to make connections is to put your tree on here..................as far as I can see, you have not yet done so
