Roxanne Report 22 Aug 2010 15:20

I have leonard christopherson, whos parents l am on the understanding where a leonard christopherson and a kathleen davies. She was possibly born in 1926 and was most likely in Cardiff or at least in the area of glamorgan. Her husband leonard christoperson was born 1925 roughly but was also born in cardiff/glamorgan. I cant however find any record of them getting married, conformation on how many children they have or their parents names Can you help? roxanne

Births Mar 1915

Davis Kathleen I Cronin Cardiff 11a 768


could be Kathleens parents - Cronin seems to be a not uncommon name in Cardiff

DAVIES Sidney J Cronin Cardiff 11a 566 <<<<
Jones Gomer Thomas Cardiff 11a 566

Given that a) they might not be the right parents and b) both names are not unique in the area, these may or may not be Kathleens sisters
