Richard I know a little about my Wheelers. My greatgrandmother Lily Francis (born in Croydon) had a sister Eliza Rosina (married CUTTS) and I have contacted her grandson. Eliza Rosina was known as Rose and her grandson could not find her birth because of this so I do not think that this is the same as Elizabeth. The brothers were Walter, Herbert, George and Willie (William). Willie we know about as living aunties knew him; he is remembered for moving to Southend Essex and running a cinema and a furniture shop as well as being involved in amateur dramatics. I believe George (married WATERS) went to Kent near Erith and had a small-holding cherry orchard. Walter (married EGAN) was working at New Cross at the end of the war narrowly surviving the V2 that hit Woolworths. James is this the same family?
