Hi George 46 here[Alf]
Nice to hear from you regarding our extended family,I know very little about the Larkin's.

My mum as stated was the daughter of Mary Edwards who was the daughter of Peter Larkin,
as you can imagine it became a little complicated.I look forward to your reply.I live in a village
near Wetherby W Yorks. My mum died 10 yrs ago at the age  of 96.
My best email address is alfbur@btinternet.com hope to hear from you soon.
Alf
