Thank you for this. Can I just check his initials as it should be Wilfred J C Elkins.but everything else matches, dob and occupation both correct.
This is such great news as I never knew he actually married. Also been told than he was single and after his younger brother passed away he moved in with his widowed sister-in-law as a lodger.
