Thank you for the replies that is lucy and James Thompson, I have James registration card for 1941 and he gives his daughters Lillian Palke as his next of kin at Kentucky Ave. East End Pittsburgh he is living at 314 le Blanc Pittsburgh so I guess his wife Lucy has died. I can't find Lillian's birth or the wedding for James and Lucy.
