Hi Migky
He had   1 brother  and 2 sisters

 Harold Biddle  1903
Blanche Biddle  1901    ( this was the lady who was left some of his will)
she marries a James T Temple in  1931
Muriel Biddle   1906

I wonder why they went mentioned in the will    maybe they had died .

There is also  pictures of an ancestors   house in the book
it seems to be some relation to their Grandmother Ellen Ralls   b 1837    the house is in Pershore   so will  work  back with here   the surname  Nutt comes in somewhere I think it could be  Ellens mother .

Love a good mystery

Will let you know what I uncover

Ok i think you will have to cast your net a bit further a field  ;D
Son Harold William Biddle ( born 1903 ) sailed for France 1928.
His address at the time was the 74 ST. Micheals road, Headingly. Leeds
PM me your email address.

Also found a second " Passenger Lists Leaving UK " for a Harold Biddle born 10th Feb 1903. Now i am not sure if it is the same man? It could well be as he was listed as a manager on the 1928 record and director in March 1960 passenger list. This time it give an address of:
Cherry tree,
Hag farm road,
Burley In Wharfedale


Hag farm road is in  Ilkley, Bradford LS29, so not to far away?
Also, looks like Harold must have run a business?

Mmmmm  It says on this record that he was married   I wonder weather he went away on   business    as his wife is not on the list   .
That is if it is the same one 
If it had been down as Harold  W   we would   know for sure  ::)
The first one is defiantly  correct  because the address is the same as in the book

Yes i did spot the Marriage in 1930 but did not post any children as they could still be alive and a no- no on rootschat for some strange reason?
Funny i can post the name of David Beckham's next child when it is born but not some one that may be dead or still alive.

Nowt funny- ya than folk as thee say up north ;D
