Hi Phil,

There is a Gladys M Sullivan b 1919 Dec qtr Plymouth ref 5b 456. Mother's maiden name was Chapman.

also a death of a John Sullivan aged 36 years in Plymouth in June qtr 1919 ref 5b 502

The only marraige of a John Sullivan to a Chapaman I could find was between a George John Sullivan and an Amey Chapman at Exeter in 1909

Hi again,

I looked for Gladys Sullivan's marriage and found

Gladys W Sullivan married Arnold V Eddy Dec qtr 1943 Bodmin  ref 5c 150

The only Gladys W Sullivan I can find is Gladys W L Sullivan b Mar qtr 1922 Pancras 1b 47 mother's maiden name Thomas.

So either the W/M are transcription errors (happens occasionally) or you'll need to invest in a few certs to find the right ones  ;)

as you probably know Arnold Vivian Eddy b 6/3/1922 d Feb 2002 aged 79 years death registered at Penzance.

I hope this helps,

Howdie
