Thank you so much for all this information, definitely my family.  Lilian the daughter of Alice was my grandmother.  Lilian’s birth cert states father unknown,  I am hoping to find more information from anyone who may have known the Bennett family, I appreciate it was a long time ago but fingers crossed.  I really appreciate all the information.

kind regards -
