Hello,
I am looking for GEORGE LANCEY ELSTON, he was born 1880 at Newport Monmouthshire, he married MARY JANE FRANCIS 30-3-1907 at Newport. In 1911 he is in lodgings living at 18, River Row Pontyclun Llantrisant Glamorgan, In 1917 he is in Driffield Workhouse Yorkshire and he seemed to have stayed there for about one month, I cannot find him after that date and I do not know when or where he died, If anyone can help with any information please do get in touch, thank you.
Regards,
Syd

Thank you Mike, Ann &Glitterbaby for your help, yes this is the correct person and I do know that GEORGE and his wife parted around 1911 and they never divorced,
If he did die 1964 I am not sure where he was between 1917- 1964.
Thanks once again,
Syd
