    • Archie (top left) over picture of Edith, with her two daughters, Edith and Margaret.

      The photo is lovely. It's of Sue's Auntie Edie and her 2 girls Janet and Edith but one might be May who died not sure and of course Uncle Archie in 1st World War uniform.  Doesn't he look stressed and tired.  You can see the horror of War in his eyes, it is so moving.
‌Eda and Archie were married on September 18th, 1912 in Birkenhead. They had two sons and four daughters, named Albert, John, Edie, Janet, May and Hilda.
