    Griffiths, Frederick

    I am now starting to think that Alfred and Frederick are the same person. If George is aged 2 on the 1921 census then it's starting to fit together and looking more promising.

    Griffiths, Frederick

    Thank you MWS, Will look more into the info you have given and see if I can confirm that Frederick and Alfred are the same person. A link between the address of Rose Cottage, Malvern Link and Alfred (Frederick) would be a good start. Peter
