He was my ex father in law.

Well I never! Did you have that information Jimmy?

I had some information, but I have never been able to find Walter Stokes till the 1921 census, I new he came from the black county. From what we have now its what I thought about the family.

Meet Walter Arthur Stokes or Charles R Stokes. 1879 - 1941.

Nice to put a face to a name.

Is this now completed?

I was hoping to find out what happened to his first wife, but it can be archived.
