Evelyn Olive Merle DEACON (known as Merle DEACON)
« on: Saturday 30 July 11 01:43 BST (UK) »
I am looking for any information about Merle.  Born 10th November 1908.  Her parents were Thomas Richard Deacon and Evelyn Virtue Hill.  Merle's siblings were, Walter Richard, Stanley Ernest, Victue Gwen, Sydney Hilll and Frederick Thomas.  Merle married Harry James Thomas in 1934 at St Lukes Adelaide and they were divorced in 1938.
Merle's mother Evelyn had a sister Mary Jane Hill who was married to Robert John Cook.  Their youngest daughter was Alma Mary.  I am Alma's daughter and would appreciate any information not only about Merle but any members of Thomas and Evelyn's family.
Josephine.
