Hi Damien, thanks so much for your post

Hilda Preston was indeed Bert Jnrs mother. WE HAVE A MATCH...YAY!!!! We're thrilled to hear about the rest of his family i.e brother & sisters.
I believe there is definitely a family connection between your friend, my husband, our daughter, my sister in law & brother in law. Please feel free to email us. Please give your friend our regards & thankyou Damien. Hope to hear from you sometime soon.
Kind regards,
Gaylene
