Yorkshire (East Riding & York) / Re: I'm searching for Florence Hargrave, likely born in Hull

Thank you. It appears Harold married Mary Needler in 1953 in Leeds.
Harold also had a sister, Florrie Good, born 1895, who married the Reverend John Milton Borrow (born 1889) in 1932. They were present at Harold's funeral, and I found their names from the newspaper cutting my grandma kept.

It seems like he had two wives in his life? I also found Sarah, who he married on 9 June 1921.

Second part. The rest is all the names of business partners who went to the funeral.

For some reason Florence kept the attached newspaper clipping in the same tin as her diary and the photos of my dad that my grandma sent her. Her family found the tin when she died and started looking for my dad. I'm going to have to upload it in two parts.

Florence kept multiple letters written to her in December 1941 by a George who bought her a ring. She mentions a George in her diary in 1947 as well. In the 1941 letters, he gives his division:
"Same kid,
H.Q.R.A,
15(S) Division,
Home forces"

Maybe he was the H. Good from Hull born 1898, died Sep 1964.

I spoke to Beryl from the death notice on Sunday. Florence and their family ran into their neighbour's bomb shelter and they shouldn't have done. Florence broke her leg, the rest were killed.

I'm now interested in finding Harold Good, a wholesale merchant in Hull in the 1940s. Judging by Florence's diary, which I obtained on Sunday, he is my granddad.
