Shred....Does your wife know if the South's have a family lair or where the may be buried etc....

[shred]

I have asked..... She is unaware of where the Souths are buried. She recalls that Florence South was buried in Partington, but cannot remember the cemetery's name.

I have spoken to she who must be obeyed.

Her grandparents are: Harriet South and John W Sutton
Lancashire Marriage indexes for the years: 1918
SOUTH Harriet SUTTON John W Salford Ascension Salford C29/7/387

Harriet was the daughter of Richard and Mary South.
1911 census:
14 David St, Broughton
Richard South 47
Mary South 46
Richard South 17
Harriet South 15
James South 12
Florence South 10
Margaret South 8
John South 5

Harriet passed away before my wife was born, so she does not remember her. She does remember Florence (highlighted in red) who lived to a ripe old age and she does recall her great-aunt Flo saying that the family were related to the footballer Archie Gemmell (we don't know if there is any truth in this).......Had an email from Keith.....He sent me a photo of my Grandad and his family....thank you for your help...i told him i will phone him....Get back to you later.....Can you email me the service record you talked about.....regards....Ray.
