Hi Barbara

I cant help with Gertrude, but Harold was brother to Herbert Windale, who was married to Jane Brown (Windale) they resided in Darlington. Thanks for the info as it has helped me fill in a gap on the Windale side.

On the 1891 census that Ecneps posted , all those children check out on the GRO site to have a mother's maiden name of Ayre

As Robert G was single in 1881 and married by 1891 with the eldest child listed as being born 1885, this looks like a quite likely record for the marriage of Robert G Wright and Mary E Ayre

https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:NXP9-GFJ

and there was a marriage announcement in the newspapers
Northern Star 1 Aug 1884, page 3 c 1
Marriages
WRIGHT-AYRE
July 31st at St John's Church, Darlington Robert Wright to Mary Ellen Ayre, both of Darlington

a free search of the 1921 census has a
Selina G Windale born 1889, recorded in Carlisle, and the other occupants are a Harold A, Harold and 3 others

Using just the surname Windale, and specifying Carlisle in the free search brings up just 6 names - which matches on numbers from Selina G's result -
Selina G born 1889 Darlington
Harold A born 1888 Darlington
Harold born 1912 Darlington
Doris born 1913
and the two youngest born Carlisle
Irene born 1917
Thomas W born 1920

Checking the children in the GRO index shows they all have a MMN of Wright

Boo

If this is the correct Harold (Brother of Herbert Windale) it would be interesting!
