Mmm45 yes this is the man, did you get the info from the Medal Card?
ShaunJ landseer road is the correct address but where did you get Beatrice from?

Next of kin named on the RFA file (1908-1911), presumably information given in 1908.

Mother Mary Ann 4 Whewell Road, Cornwallis Rd, Holloway
Brother Joseph 27 Lyndhurst Road, Thornton heath
Sister Beatrice (with mother)

In the 1891 census (21 Marcellus Road) there is a girl with a name that looks like Benjamin, born Islington circa 1882. I wonder if that is her - from a previous marriage?

Thanks. I have been trying to find Benjamin! Beatrice might be easier.

Looks like her birth was registered as Beatrice Mary Benney q/e Sep 1882 1C 423. Ties in with death of Beatrice Mary Denny in 1976 (born 13 July 1882).

It's another mystery - if she is Harry's sister why is the birth registered in his mother's former name, 2 years after his parents married?

Mary Ann Benney nee UREN married William Joseph HADDEN 9th August 1880. He was a widower and she a widow although I can't find her previous marriage. Why the child born after the second marriage has been registered under her previous name I don't known. There have been a number off odd things in this family so this is just another mystery!

Ady and the others on this forum, I apologise but I have info for Ady and I know this isn't the right place but I don't know how else to contact a relative (it's taken me a while to find this place!)

 Ady, 7 years ago you posted on a Yorkshire Indexers forum that you may be related to William Wade. That's my great grandfather.  I have a full genealogy if you are interested.  Please contact me on largelyhappy at hotmail dot com. And once more, apologies for an inappropriate posting.
