What happened to the Whittington's
« on: Sunday 26 January 20 01:23 GMT (UK) »
Sydney William Whittington was born 5 Apr 1916 possibly Bexley, Kent. His wife Muriel May Lambourne was born 1919 Brentford. Their marriage was registered 1940 Dartford. I can trace them living in Bexley to the early 1960's but they then seem to disappear. I can find no death record nor emigration record.
