  1. 1905 National Probate - WELL (GRANVILLE) Hubert Hedworth of Whites-cllub St James Middlesex died 17 April 1904 at Santa Cruz, Teneriffe, Canary-island Administration (with will) (Limited) London 15 February to Ethel Mary Grenvile Wells widow effects £65
    There is a lot of information on various Web Sites about this family. It is well documented back to George Grenville (later Nugent-Temple-Grenville), 3rd Earl Temple, 1st Marquess of Buckingham (1784) As it is not a direct line for our own family I do not intend going any further back than this chart.
  2. 1906 3 Montague Mansions Bryanston Square, Marylebone, Westminster, Middlesex. Father - John Croft (Baronet) (Deceased) Gentleman (at second marriage)
    Daughter  of Sir John Frederick Croft, 2nd Bt. and Emma Graham
    1911 Granville Place Mansion, Protman Square, W. I believe that this is the correct couple as the marriage certificate would give the ages as 1858 for Alfred and 1870 for Ethel. Ethel is down as Ethel Mary but Alfred is down as Alfred Isaac not Alfred James as the marriage certificate in 1908. However I still believe it is the correct couple the are down correctly as being married four years. They have no children with them but there is a visitor a Mary MANNING married aged 56 born Colnnts, Ceylon, and two servants an Edith Lillian HEBBARD married 27 a General Servant Domestic born Greatcoate, Lincolnshire and a Mabel elizabeth BUTTON single aged 18 a Heneral Servant Domestic born Sawbybook, Lincolnshire.
  3. 1906 st Georges, Hanover Square, Marylebone, Westminster, Middlesex. Father William Benjamin (deceased) Merchant.
    1911 Granville Place Mansion, Protman Square, W. I believe that this is the correct couple as the marriage certificate would give the ages as 1858 for Alfred and 1870 for Ethel. Ethel is down as Ethel Mary but Alfred is down as Alfred Isaac not Alfred James as the marriage certificate in 1908. However I still believe it is the correct couple the are down correctly as being married four years.

The idea of these charts is to give the information that we have found in the research we have done and put together and with the help of many other people who have contacted us over the past thirty odd years we have been researching our family. The idea is that you click on the Chart box in blue to be taken to the next family. There is now a large number of charts to be found and connections can be made to all the main families I am researching. If a chart has a box with the standard background it means that as yet I have not put the Chart on the Web.
To conform to the Data Protection Act all the Charts have been altered to exclude all details for living people other than the name.
