Hiya Russ...on www.freebmd.org.uk there is a marriage for Lilian H Watt in 1934
there are 2 surnames....one of them being  Graves....
then if you look for births of
Graves ...mothers maiden name Watt you will find a birth
 in mar qtr 1937 of I***** Graves , Manchester North 8d 510
cant find a marriage for ellen in Manchester
Alexander Watt to Sarah Hulme in dec qtr 1929 Manchester South..3 children one born 1930 and looks like twins born in 1934
cant find a marriage for Leonard Watt in Manchester

I can`t post any names of the children as they may well be alive....the I***** Graves born 1937 should not be that difficult to trace as he has a quite rare christian name......good luck....allan :)
