Lets discount the Hills, I cant remember which but it did appear on a website as Hills. This is certainly the correct family, so now I have a GG Aunt and Uncle( cant trace my mother so I will make do with Aunts and Uncles
Thank you so much

I stil can not help think that in every reference we have Louise Harrett Mary.
There has been no reference to Hills.
Are you sure of your info on that one?

That 1911 looks like a really good match and confirms 1901 I found earlier was not right. Can any one find a better one?

I wonder if Jean and Peter with widow and widower?
It is very interesting to know about our ancestors isnt it?

Thank you Deborah
That is very interesting, they must have had the cafe business for a long time, because that is how I know of them, when things didnt go to his liking(we lived in Weymouth at this time) my father would get on his bike and cycle to London where he would assist his Auntie Louisa in the cafe also there would be what I thought to be his cousin Frank, maybe Frank was not really related and I have the wrong end of the stick.Once my Father had cooled down a bit he would cycle back to Weymouth and come home as if he had only been out for half an hour(oh like many others I could write a book). I am enjoying this exercise very much and thank you so much for your help it is much appreciated
Evelyn
My fathers excursions used to take place 1946-1947
