Just came across this old thread. I've solved the mystery of Edith and her husband and have managed to sort her history out. I never did find out why my father said her husband was Governor of Lewes prison because he wasn't. It will remain a mystery.

Hi Julia

I live in Sawley which is next to Long Eaton so I'm not far away!  I am descended from Thomas and Mary.  Their son Edmund married Sarah Foster in 1844 and they were the parents of Edmund Foster Towle. He married Clara Read in 1875 and they were the parents of Edith Annie Towle. She married Lewis Thompson Wheeldon and they were the parents of Catherine Annie Wheeldon. She married James William Allen and they had a daughter Joyce. Joyce married Gerald Willis and were the parents of Anne - me!
Edmund and Sarah lived in Beeston before coming to Long Eaton.  Edmund remarried to a much younger woman (Martha Birley)in 1895 following the death of Sarah in 1890.  The others all lived in Long Eaton.  I have sent a personal message with my e-mail address so we can chat further!
Regards  Anne

Hi Julia

Lewis Thompson Wheeldon and Edith Annie Towle were my great grandparents.  I am descended from their daughter Catherine.  They had 2 children, Catherine and Ernest.

I have been researching my family history for several years now and have a lot of information on Lewis and Edith.  I knew Edith ( I called her Ma) but Lewis died before I was born but I have photos of them.

I would be pleased to share information with you.

Regards
Anne

Thanks but I know Commander Cooke was at Lewes Prison I just need to know who he was married to ( or if he was married).

I had information that Edith's husband was Governor of Lewes Prison in 1948 that is why I "chose" him because Commander C S Cooke was governor at that time.  I have found out that his Christian names are Campbell Stewart but still can't find him.
