Hi Alison, Could you have look to see if you can anything for a Harry Wilkinson Fruit Merchant (Manchester). I am struggling to find information past my Grandmother on my dads side of the family and her marriage certificate (1934) has her fathers details as above. If you wouldn't mind having a look when you get the chance, I would be grateful. Thank you Vanessa
