Both immigrated to Ohio it seems. These 3 children, including Dorothy, seem to be from Wilfred's first wife Stella. (Note that if you reply through the URL and not just hit reply, it will be stored and others can find this information easier in future) 1910 United States Federal Census > Ohio > Cuyahoga > Cleveland Ward 21 > District 318 no children yet.

He died on 9 Apr 1972 in Florida, USA and was buried 12 Apr 1972 in Florida, USA. Wilfred's (British) parents were George William OLIVER (1842-1919) and Mary Ann PAGE (Abt 1854-1930). Wilfred's siblings were: a) Ann (1972-1918); b) Charlotte Elizabeth (1876-1958); c) Kathryn (1878-1961); d) Elizabeth Maud (1884-1962); e) Helen Florence (Cir 1890); and f) My maternal grandmother, Winifred Sarah (1893-1956). Wilfred apparently had two wives in USA, of whom I know the following: 1. He married Lydia?? BENDE?? and fathered three children, viz. Dorothy, Nora and George OLIVER, in USA; and 2. He also married Stella <???>. I am eager to fill in missing gaps, i.e. * Who (full names) did he marry, where and when? * Birth/death dates of the individuals concerned? * Any further details of the three named children (BMD and spouse(s))? * Any children from marriage to Stella? Any help would be appreciated! Regards, David L. Sutcliffe (Dave) Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
