Betty Maud (T) Merchent

  General Notes:

Pat Lewis-Bodilly notes:
My aunt, Betty Maud Merchant, was born in 1920 and not 1922 as she had told the family. She is still
living at 91 years old. She was a twin, but her sister was not named although her birth was registered, so I presume she died at birth.
I haven't seen Auntie Bet since 2004 when her son-in-law died.
She married my Mum's eldest brother Arthur 'Kenneth' Morris on 3/3 1944 in Cheltenham. Uncle Ken was born 5/5/1921 in Cheltenham,
Gloucestershire and died in Cheltenham General Hospital on 26/3/1976. They had 3 children; twin daughters born 1945 and a son born 1949.
