Trixie_au, to establish if this Wilfred is your Wilfred the best bet would be to buy the marriage certificate to Edith. That would give his father’s name (if known) and occupation so should confirm one way or the other.

Brilliant, a sad end to his life but he’d done quite a lot with a stay in Australia etc, and great to solve the puzzle.

Sad in a way to see that his widow never re-married, was in her 80s when she died, and is buried with Wilfred 💕

Wonder who the baby buried with them was?

You may have got it off of google street maps but his address is next door to my local butchers - so let me know if you want a photo of the house

Wonder who the baby buried with them was?

Seems to be the child of Charles Good and Phyllis Sutcliffe - who married in Cardiff 1935

Phyllis Sutcliffe born Pontypridd 1912 has MMN of Webster (despite Edith being born in Bristol by 1911 she's in Pontypridd with her parents so stands to reason a baby sister being born there)
Edith's MMN was also Webster

So I'm guessing it's their baby niece buried with them

Thanks iolaus, looked for a Good - Sutcliffe marriage from 1930 but didn’t see that one.  ::)
