Elsie May Holmes (1908-1993)

[Paul Beard]

Hi - thanks for getting back to me. I now see the difference between the two, albeit I had looked at the original document and not really noticed what the pencil insertions actually said. I believe it is possible that the eldest daughter (Elsie) could be the daughter of Frederick John Stoner but remain uncertain about Agnes. I hope to be able to establish when Frances moved to the Ramsgate area but that is not going to be easy.

I have come across your post which attracted my attention.  The following may be of some assistance:
Elsie May Holmes nee Mallan was the daughter of Arthur James Mallan, who was posted to Malta in 1910( https://www.thegazette.co.uk/London/issue/28403/page/5589/data.pdf).  Elsie May Mallan was married to Edward George Holmes in 1929 - http://website.lineone.net/~stephaniebidmead/navy0079.htm?showpage=true
Her passport when she was still a 'spinster': http://213.165.169.182/pp/2/1927/1927_MFA01_00926.pdf.  She was born on 02.03.1909.
Her brothers must have stayed and married in Malta because there are descendants there.
Good luck
