AHA!    That very well could be the case.

Maybe we should follow Mr. gale and see where he was etc.  Would be nice to find out who was living at that address c1915 when Frederick noted it on his papers.

Good idea!

  I do have information that the Denyers resided at Wish Cottage Hove until around 1927. 

That information is found in this caption

Images 57 to 62 of that collection all mention Wish House: the people shown may be Denyers!

gwalkden, these are the same photos you thought were your family members.

Yes these are the people.  (she was ugly wasn't she!)  However, she looks a lot like the person in the picture my Grandfather had.  We always laughed and thought she looked like a man.  That's why I thought that that lady was my gr-grandmother.  Maybe it is her and she was visiting?  That's where it's confusing.

Where is that picture now, do you know?

 Alfred DENYER (no middle name) to:-Mary Jane WALDER June quater 1895 vol 2B page 399, this looks more  like the marriage of your great grandparents. This also fits with Victoria's name.

FindMyPast has transcription of this marriage. It took place on 25 Apr 1895 at Hurstpierpoint. Alfred's father was called Nathan. Alfred Denyer was 22 at marriage, so born approx 1875.
The 1881 census has the family at Hangleton. Nathan and wife Jane with several children. Nathan was born in Wisborough green, Sussex approx 1837.

The other Alfred (Alfred Jupp Denyer) was born in Sutton, Sussex approx 1864. In 1871, he's a pupil at the workhouse in the parish of Wisborough Green.
Familysearch has his baptism on 24 April 1864 at Sutton. mother Fanny Denyer, no father mentioned, but from his name, it might possibly be a Mr Jupp. The record says residence was West Thorney, Sussex.

There are a number of Fanny / Frances Denyers who are possibilities for the mother on various censuses, but none connects to Nathan.

I now have Nathan Denyer's baptism on Ancestry. 23 Oct 1836 at Wisborough Green, parents William and Elizabeth. No sign of this couple having a daughter Fanny.
