[queenswood 1]

Alfred married Violet Glady Hopwood in West Ham London in 1929. They had a daughter Jose in 1933 and a son Graham in 1936. Violet died in West Ham in 1961 but I cannot confirma death for Alfred yet- are you able to confirm for me please? I can see a possible one in 1974 on the Isle of wight but not sure.

Alf married again in 1969, to Grace Murdoch in IOW, his funeral/cremation was on 2 January 1975 at St John's church, Ryde, IOW. I don't have a date of death but it will have been in December 1974 as the death was registered in the last quarter of 1974. When he died he was living at F3, Regents Court, East Hill Road, Ryde. Grace his second wife died in 1978.

Thank you. I must admit I looked at the IOW connection but without family knowledge it is hard to be sure.

Thank you so much for all your help.

Such an unusual surname has been fascinating to dip into!

Another daughter called Pam was born in 1931 I think she died last year. My Mum thinks Jose emigrated I presume Jose is the link here to Alf & Vi.

It does come up but you need to click the box for "Phonetic search surnames" Mylchreest is often recorded or transcribed wrong.
