Looking to find some more information such as burials, photos etc about the family of Lily Matthews (nee Weldon) Originally from Beverley/East Riding area.
Lily was the youngest of 5 children born to William and Rhoda Weldon (nee Haylor) on 10th June 1905, I know she married William Ruddock Matthews in October 1930 and moved to Hunston, Suffolk where they had two sons William Ronald and Albert Arthur before her early death in 1937.
I'm basically looking for any information about William (b. 1868) and Rhoda Weldon (b. 1868) and their other 4 children- Violet (b. 1890), Henry John (b. 1892), Alfred Hugh (b. 1897) and Agnes May (b. 1899)

I can't seem to find that 1891 census.. I've got as much as I can on Ancestry; just really trying to find out if there is any more info such as where they are buried, photos etc.
-
such as where they are buried, photos etc.
It's best to be as specific as possible in your opening post about what you're looking for, otherwise - as this thread shows - people will spend time looking for material you already have.

I have amended my original post.
