Wow looks as though everyone's been hard at it! Thank you. I'm Ellie by the way the author of the post on the family history site  :)

I just read Willow's post regarding a marriage to a Rita Ball, thank you.
I think this maybe worth investigating further if possible. Can I ask how did you find this on ancestry please?

kind regards

Hiya Ellie

I just searched under perc* fred* ball in England luckily Ancestry chucks up any fred* perc* combinations too

It might be worth the cost of the marriage certificate to see what information is on there

Unfortunally Dallow and Dallow arent there any more otherwise I would have been banging on their door to see if they ever had a reply (its only round the corner)  ;D

F P Ball married R O Benham 1943 Portsmouth


I wonder if this might be her birth entry & birth entry of a son

1924 Portsmouth
R O BENHAM mmn LENE (it could be LANE)

1943 Portsmouth
R F BALL mmn BENHAM (male)
full name can be found on FreeBMD

perhaps her parents  marriage
1915 Portsmouth
Robert BENHAM to Teresa LANE

There are other BENHAM birth entries Portsmouth  mmn LANE 1917 - 1930
