Colin,

Having seen your request in above magazine, My fathers mother was married to a John Chatfield of 4 St. Marys Road, Hastings on 28/08/1908 at the registry office in Hastings
my father also had a step brother William and a step sister Ivy. William had two sons Dennis and Godfrey who are still alive, Ivy married a Mr Oswald and had twins Gillian and Derek.

If this information is of use to you and if I can help in enlarging on the above I will only be pleased to help if I can

Regards Brian Mepham Age 79
