Many thanks to Ruskie and Gerry for your replies.An excellent find Gerry.

Thanks Sue,I've just had a message from a contact on Genes Reunited stating that Alma had a brother called Robert Foulk Jones so that part of the name may in fact be Foulk.

Regards
William Russell Jones.

The names in the death notice certainly indicate a previous family to ALBERT.
