I am looking for any information, photos etc of my husbands family.
His father was Stanley Newton who was married to Peggy Newton, nee Richards, until her death in 1967.
He then married a lady called Frances.
I have two sons and we have no photos or information about their father’s family. We are just looking for any information or photos or any details of Peggy’s family. We are not necessarily in need of any contact if it is not wanted. Just some photos of their fathers family would be great. Their father could never tell them much and now this is their only hope.
I hope you can help, thanks!
