In 1951 you have an entry for Mrs E Neale who died at the Three Suns 15th Jan 1951. She was my dad's aunt, called Ethel Winifred Neale and her husband was Arthur R Neale. The entry above hers on the page says Benj Harris 1944. *

We have many photos of Ben HARRIS and Ethel's daughter can't remember much about him due to her being very young, but he is connected to us in some way. *
