There is more information on George Child at Cenotaph site
http://www.rootschat.com/links/0dza/
including photos of parents David and Annie's headstone.  :o

Also another plaque that is hard to read - I think one name is Elizabeth.

Hope this helps

 ;D

Wow, thank you, John. I shall have a look.

I had previously found another website with some information about George which was how I came to know that David and moved to NZ and remarried but this is new.

Thanks again.

Kindest regards fom sunny Lancashire (two days in a row!)

Hi Amanda
You may have all the information you require as I see your post was a wee while ago. I was doing some browsing tonight.
I am the great granddaughter of David Poulter. My grandmother was Alice Elizabeth Child (later married to john Wannan) - David's daughter. Yes he did remarry as his first wife Annie died when Alice and George were very young. I will find out from what and let your know. Their son George was in an air accident during the war and their is a memorial for him Yorkshire England as I understand his body was never recovered. He remarried to Sarah later in life. They are all in the cemetery in Avondale Auckland. my grandmother Alice and Grandfather  John Craigon Wannan (from Scotland) they married here in NEw Zealand in 1933. They had 4 children. (*)
Let me know if you need further details to help and I will find out what I can. I recall there was a book written by some of Alice's cousins called from Newchurch to New Zealand - don't know how widely it was published.
Hope this might help you in your search.
Kind regards
Brenda (née Audain)

Hi Brenda,

Welcome to Rootschat :)

Hi Amanda,

Brenda still has one posting on the board, that is why you get the message the inbox is full, when you tried to make contact.   As mentioned by Berlin-Bob, in Reply #22 Brenda needs to make a couple of more postings, even if they are just smiley faces, to activate the Private Message system, then you can both send email addresses, as Brenda can't use the system yet.


Cheers
