Have just come across this post whilst looking for Styles relations. The Marsh sisters married Frederick and Walter Styles who were younger brothers of my Great Grandfather Henry William James Styles. Frederick was born in 1882 and Walter (who was known as Um!) in 1883. Frederick and his wife went to live in Canada. My mother, who died a few months ago, talked about them and gave me a lot of the Styles family history. She said that Walter (Um) had 2 sons, Norman and Walter, that she knew of. She also said that Frederick married a Marsh sister and went to Canada with a set of tools and £10 and gradually worked his way up to be managing director of a coal/lumber business. She thought his wife died young in Winnipeg. They had a daughter called Dorothy and a son who had 2 children. I have a photo of Frederick and his son and daughter and on the back Mum has written that Frederick and Dolly came to England to visit family in 1938. There is another photo with Fred and Mum's grandfather during that visit. Also have a photo of Walter and his wife.
