Clarence was born in 1872, d.1955 and his wife Ada 1874 - 1959. They had a son, Derrick Stephen b 1917 and a daughter Mollie. I am trying to trace this side of the family and would be grateful for any leads.

Thanks Paula. I dont really know where they were born. Later in life they lived in Surrey. They were bombed in the second world war and as a result she spent the rest of her life in a wheelchair. The dates are accurate. I think the family came from Shropshire and before that, Wales. Worcester is the next county to it I see, so its a possibility.

Do you have Derrick Stephen's birth cert to prove his mother's maiden name or the marriage certificate of his parents which might help to narrow things down.

Without a date or area there seem to be many combinations - some of them fitting names but not the areas you have given and others fitting areas but with other differences.

None seem to match all the info you have given us.
