BRENDA is older ( 1937 )

I found a marriage in 1986 in Somerset

& found them both on E/reg...I guess Brenda could either check the address out or order the m/c to check if the age ties up.

IF the Gillian I found was the correct one, she's remarried. I've pm'd Whirley the details for an ER check.

I've alos pm'd Brenda but she's not opened the message
