In 1951 you have an entry for Mrs E Neale who died at the Three Suns 15th
Jan 1951. She was my dad's aunt, called Ethel Winifred Neale and her husband
was Arthur R Neale. The entry above hers on the page says Benj Harris 1944.

We have many photos of Ben HARRIS and Ethel's daughter can't remember much
about him due to her being very young, but he is connected to us in some way.
