If this is to fit Isabella appears to be a lot older than Arthur. 20 years ish. That appears to be quite a bit older than her brother if that’s who it is.

Does this mean Isabella was 40 in 1915.  Arthur was about 19.  Could she have been Arthur’s mother not his sister ?

Emma Thuman/Shuman is described as sister-in-law so Isabella should be Isabella Shurman/Thurman.

Alternate view - he claimed he was visiting his sister, she was actually his sister-in-law, as John I Wilson was actually John I Isaacs, but then would have been asked why they had different surnames?

(Or the I stands for Isaacs)

Or this is the wrong family.

The reason I think it is the correct family is the fact that Louisa was staying with Carrie in Guildford having her child.  Also, the name Wilson is too much of a coincidence to ignore. We could never fathom why Louisa would choose Wilson for her and the family. She surely couldn’t have picked that name out of thin air. 

I think it fits I just don’t know how

What I can’t get my head round is the age gap between Arthur and Isabella/John.

Ok reviewed this.  I agree that Goodman may have been Gerald but I still don’t understand where Arthur fits in.
