Can you tell me if George Paxtons son - Andrew Paxton - does he have a daughter called Constance and did she marry into the Williamson family - I just want to make sure I've got it right, its for my Grandads side of the family.

Thanks

Indeed Constance Paxton married Bertram Williamson in 1942 in Romford Essex.
