But we found in claudes service  records that the children went to live with arthur t claudes brother in weston

Rhys, I have just read the war record and I can only see where it indicates that Claude Jnr aged 15 is with Arthur. I did not see any other children mentioned by name. The only reference was that there were 2 boys and 2 girls, but not where they were all residing.

Could you tell me the page number where it says that all the children are with Arthur, please?

Yes, Jackie the transcript will be useful.

Don't judge her too harshly. Herbert most likely offered her comfort, security and a home for her children. Maybe he also reminded her of her husband.

Seems like he was a decent bloke, as was still looking after the children well after her death.
