Bronnie Report 24 Apr 2011 07:16

The abovenamed was born in the 1850's in or near London. He was
married to Phoebe Jane Farr and their three children were Harold
Edmund William Tooley, Lillian Blanche Tooley and Walter Ethelbert
Tooley.
I am looking for Walter's dod, his wife's dod - she was born in Wiltshire in
1856, and any information re the three children.
Walter and Phoebe were married in Sept 1879 in Lambeth, Middlesex, England.
