Hi, I am trying to find any info on my Great Uncle James Henry King and his wife Elizabeth King . James was born in Southchurch Essex on 5th November 1880 and died in Southampton on 29th August 1956 at the age of 75. He had for many years been a butler in the household of Sir Winston Churchill. His wife Elizabeth (known as Bessie) was born in 1875 (Maiden name un-known) and died in Lymington, Hampshire (where they had lived together since 1949) in a nursing home on 10th January 1961. Please, any scraps of info no matter how small will be very much appreciated ..... Thanks !
