Mary Ellen Boler nee Jones had been married before to John Henry Boler    Click here for a copy of the marriage




There is a Herbert Peacock shown on the 1927 directory at 5 Derby place, but sadly he does not show up on 1918 Hulme - Moss side or Chorlton-on -Medlock Absent voters registers.

Hi Ben,
Wow, spot on again and not the first time you've solved something for me
Have only just started researching this guy, so I am very grateful for your time.
Just curiosity; MC John Henry Boler has father John Boler Confectioner. His father was Samuel Boler(wheelwright)
and this John Boler was actually John Featherstone who lived down the road and nipped in when Samuel was at work!

Truely grateful to you.
