Many thanks - I'm told that Eileen's ashes were returned to England and scattered on the family grave.

Thank you so much  :-*

I believe he married an English girl - Eileen Cooper - 8 February 1958 - again in Oregon.

Robert Lisk & Eileen Cooper were married Washington State.

Thank you for the extra information.  I have seen the headstone in Manchester, which is a little baffling because, as far as I know only Sammy is actually buried there, together with Eileen's ashes.  I thought that Samuel Benjamin and May were buried in Clackamas, Oregon.  Ah, well  :-\
