Hi John,
So pleased to see this information online; we are cousins, uncle Fred was my uncle too! He married my auntie Beryl but was sadly killed before I was born.
I have sent a photograph to the website for them to add to his page.
I have some other photos of their wedding, feel free to get in touch if you’d like me to email them to you.
Warm wishes,
Jean
