Can you confirm that surname please as there is no such name showing on any record. 

Are you referring to Newport in Monmouthshire?

If so - what is the connection to Gloucester as you have posted on the Gloucester board

If they were born in 1860 - they would be in their late 80's by "late 1940"

There's a birth of Benjamin Isitt - Dec Q. 1890, Newport M. 11a,161,
a marriage Mar Q. 1917, Newport M. on the same page as Eva E. Fennell.

There are a number of births 1918 -1933, Newport M. with the name Isitt mmn Fennell.

Hope this helps.

There's a birth of Benjamin Issit 

Surname is Isitt - not Issitt

a marriage Mar Q. 1917, Newport M. on the same page as Eva E. Fennel.

Surname is again Isitt and he is Benjamin R  and Fennel is spelt Fennell

There are a number of births 1918 -1933, Newport M. with the name Issit mmn Fennel.

The births are surname Isitt and mmn Fennell - if you search for any of the above under Issitt and Fennel it will show no results

Thank you for the correction, Carol.
I must have a loose connection between my eyes, brain and fingers    

Hey Jim,
hope they are the ones you wanted. Sorry about my spelling mistakes.
