They had 2 sons and 1 daughter. I am the daughter of their younger son, George. If you have any information that can help me build our family tree I would be most grateful.

My Dad was Joseph Francis Scarth.who married Edith Hopwood. My Grandad had an elder sister called Jane Scarth who never married and a younger brother Matthew Scarth. As far as I know they were all born in Morley, Leeds. Jane bought a guest house in Morecambe, Matthew went to Morecambe also where he married and had two sons John and Robert Scarth. I'm David Scarth, I was born in 1943, I know very little about the Crawshaw side but as a child I remember an old aunt named Hannah and my parents mentioned a cousin of my Dads who lived in the Quarry Hill Flats in Leeds but I don't know from which side of the family they came. Regards David
