All, first of all let me apologise for not getting back to everyone who answered my query concerning the above subject. My father has been ill over the past few days so my mind has been elsewhere as you can appreciate. I have had so many replies from people that I thought I would address you all. First of all I am handicapped by not knowing either the names of the surviving children of this 1909 marriage and also not knowing their gender. However I am helped in that they have the name GREATOREX which is still fairly unusual. Background: John Greatorex and Lillian Baxter were married in 1909. They can be found in the 1910 census resident with Lillians family in Marlboro City, Ulster Co. Head of family was Grant Baxter along with wife Charlotte Ann. As far as I know their is no mention of any children at this stage. I know that John and Lillian had a son called Carl but he died in July 1918 and is buried in Marlboro City. I have even visitied it in 2004. Anyway, in Jan 1919 John Greatorex died in Newburgh of TB. I have been given a brief obituary which appeared in the local newspaper and says that he is survived by his wife and 2 children. Thats all I have UNTIL in 1942 another newspaper clipping reports on the funeral of Lillian Lewis (nee Baxter and Greatorex) and when listing the floral tributes notes a "flat bouquet to Mom from Billie". Thats the total knowledge I have about any children of John and Lillian. Lillian married a Clarence Lewis and appears as his wife in the 1930 Census. I have another mystery about Lillian but will save that for a later time. If anybody can come up with any clues or suggestions on this I would be most gratefull.
