Townsends, Grimsby

[nanctown]

Looking for info on Irish-born Townsend family who settled around Grimsby maybe in the 1920s. 

Arthur (b 28/11/1878 Laois, Ireland) in Royal Dublin Fusiliers married Sarah Elizabeth Pielow in India 1911.
Children Arthur William b 1912 India and Deborah Sybil b 1916 Cork, Ireland, died 2001  Lincolnshire.

Possible Arthur junior was in RAF during WW2 and possibly married Ivy?

Any info welcome.
Many thanks
David

Thanks Tom. That sounds like her; I'll do some more checking.
Isyour info from the local newspaper - I wondered where "retired cleaner" came from.
I'm trying to find out if ARthur died during WW2, so he mightn't be buried in England.

David,

I have checked the Grimsby and Cleethorpes Rolls of Honour for World War 2 and he is not on either of them;those Rolls of Honour are in my possession and I have researched and photographed them.

Yes think that report is from a newspaper though cant say which.
