After finding 6 new aunties and uncles (my mums half brothers and sisters which she knew nothing about) I have now found another complicated twist in the tale.... My grandmother ALma Mabel HALL remarried Mr NEWTON after divorcing my grandfather in 1933 They had a son Raymond NEWTON. After Mr NEWTON died Alma Mabel HALL married Mr RIKI and had 5 more children. Raymond NEWTON dated and had a child by a lady called HILDA When Raymond died HILDA married Mr RIKI ANd they had a child Francis Hope you all followed that closely because I will be asking questions later.....

Alma died in 1955 so not a bigamist but when I first found her death I wondered if my grandfather was a bigimist as he remarried 1941. However my mum grew up beleiving that Alma had died 1931 Imagine how she now feels. I have shown her the first photo of her mother that she had ever seen..
