Thanks Pam that is the correct CW Jones birth
He married my Grandmother in 1921 in London.
He then left her in 1927, she was pregnant.
He was going to Australia to start a new life and was going to send for her at a later date.
But never did.
What happened?
Does he have another family in Australia?
Many thanks everyone for your efforts
