[i]Josiah Cleator was my first cousin once removed (my grandfather's brother's son). After his death I have been unable to locate Josiah's wife Emma Elizabeth Holmes and thier son. I would value any information someone might have. Thanks Jeffrey Cleator[/color][/i]

Welcome to Rootschat.

It is possible that Emma Elizabeth Holmes/Cleator may have remarried again after Josiah died.
There was a UK probate in 1952 for someone of that name but the death Index would indicate this one was born in 1864 which would make her to old. Needs investigated.  (check later reply 26)

Never saw a son listed ............perhaps obits for parents will tell us.
