Everything looks ok to me Mandy, very sad though.

So much information, just been reading through it all.
I see that Frederick T Underhill's father William Lees Underhill was also a General Practitioner and his mother Emily Margaret was born in Ireland (1861 Census)
If you would like to have your ancestors photo's included in our Gallery, please send me a pm.
