Hi everyone,
I have recently started a new branch of my family tree, James Burgess Rowe who married Beatrice May Collis,
Is there anyway I can find out if there were any children?,
I believe the year they married was 1924, I have located their grave (East Sheen cemetery) he passed 1943 and she did in 1994, there are no clues on the memorial to suggest there were ,
any ideas please where I could look .
Thank you
Sue
