Looking for any direct descendants of my great-aunt Ellen Greest, born 1892 in Runcorn, Cheshire, some of whom may have been born in or near Yeovil, Somerset. She may have married a Ronald, but I'm unsure of his surname. They lived in Yeovil in the 1970s. After then I have no news of their demise, or names of their issue, if any. Ronald worked for Westland Aircraft in Yeovil or Yeovilton. It could be her daughter that married this Ronald, rather than great-aunt Ellen herself. Confused? So am I ! :-)

This could be the demise of the couple in the marriage that Gin found:

Name: Joseph R Lloyd
Birth Date: abt 1896
Date of Registration: Jan-Feb-Mar 1967
Age at Death: 71
Registration district: Chester
Inferred County: Cheshire

Name: Ellen M Lloyd
Birth Date: abt 1893
Date of Registration: Jan-Feb-Mar 1967
Age at Death: 74

It does not however tie in with a couple who were living in Somerset in the 1970's.

Wouldnt have thought a couple born in the 1890,s would have the spouse working in Somerset in the 1970,s ??

It could be the daughter Ellen F Lloyd who married Ronald, and lived in Yeovil in the 1970s
