Parents and Albert in 1939.

John not there - could be in the Forces already.

The original does NOT say Hilda GE - looks more like Lila C ?last initial

Hilda's birth was registered as Hilda Q2 1917 with no initials.. It does say married on the original for both Albert and Hilda (Lila)

I have John Betchetti born Barnsley Yorkshire in 1921 and possibly died there in 2000.
His parents were Tom & Frances ( nee Wade) and he had a brother Albert 1915 to 1972
also a sister Hilda born 1917, any information regarding them all would be helpful
