Confirmation that this is the correct family.....Esther Jane, older sister of James, married William Ruddick Dodd in 1901. At the 1901 census William was a hospital porter.
Good work. I wonder why this age error is perpetuated in the 1943 papers as well? The BMD has him dead 1st quarter aged 59 born c. 1884.
