HI everyone, I am looking for information on the Flute family. Ethel Flute, born aroun 1888 in Whiston Lancashire, she was the daughter of Joseph and Isabella ? Flute. Joseph was born in Staffordshire c 1871, and Isabella came from Whiston. she was born c 1869. The 1891 census says that Ethel has a little brother, Samuel, born c 1890. At this time they were living in the parish of St. Nicholas, Whiston. Joseph was a collier.
Ethel went on to marry William (Bill) Attwood. He was born c1888 in Huyton Quarry. The children that I know of were Arthur, Bella, William, Joseph, Fred and Ethel. It is Ethel who we are connected through. She married Ken Wright, from Lincolnshire. He was stationed in Liverpool for a few months during the war. At the time they met, Ken was in lodgings in St. Catherines' Avenue, Huyton Quarry, a few doors away from the Attwoods.
Ethel( nee Flute), passed away at quite a young age, our Ethel was only about nine at the time.
If anyone has any information about the Flutes or the Attwoods, I would be very grateful. Many thanks.

How far is it to Bethlehem?

Births Sep 1888
FLUTE Ethel
Prescot 8b 656
The only possible marriage I can see for her parents is this one:
Marriages Dec 1887
FLUTE Joseph
TURNER Alice
Prescot 8b 945
Lancashire BMD states that the marriage was at St Nicholas, Whiston, but the bride is "Alice", not "Isabella A"..... 
Perhaps Ethel's birth cert would help?
I can't see Joseph anywhere obvious in 1881 - can you? There's no birth for him in Staffs on FreeBMD, so perhaps he didn't know where he was born? (Or perhaps he's under a spelling variation I haven't tried!) I can't see the family in 1901 at the moment either.
Could this be Alice/Isabella's death?
Deaths Dec 1917
FLUTE Alice I 49
Prescot 8b 772

Samuel Flute of Huyton Quarry died on 16/11/1915 while serving with the South Lancashire Regiment. He worked at BI&HC Ltd in Prescot and lived in Huyton. He is commemorated on the BICC War Memorial.
Also on the memorial, on the panel of names from the Second World War, is the inscription "R Attwood". I have tried without success to identify this man and would be grateful for any help that can be provided.

Thank you to both of you for such valuable information.
There is a detailed inquest report attached to Samuel Flute's War records on Ancestry. Sadly he died with a fellow soldier of accidental carbon monoxide poisoning.
Any further information is greatly appreciated, many thanks.
