Post by: cupcake on Wednesday 20 September 23 13:14 BST (UK)

I would like any information on Abraham Titterington & Mary Alice Todd. I believe they had a son Sydney Desmond, born, 1922, in Chorlton. Lancs, MMN Todd. Their son died 1st. November 1944. He was with the Royal Australian RAF, and was a Flight Lieutenant.

BumbleB,

Thank you so much much for this information. I will have to do some searching to see if Abraham Titterington is an ancestor. I see from your information he was born in Westmorland, Not far from where my other ancestors were born.

 Then you mention a John Todd Titterington, born Sydney, age 5.Where does Sydney Desmond fit in?

I'll need to get my thinking head on  :-\

Is this Abraham's death entry in Manchester Evening News of 3 January 1947?

Post by: softly softly on Wednesday 20 September 23 16:04 BST (UK)
It would appear that Abraham remarried in 1942 to Mary A Ellis, (see 1939 war reg)

Death of 1st or 2nd wife?

I can't seem to find the connection. I have the Titterington descendants  back to 1709. Will have a look at these again.
