    blimey ok, so just to confirm the Alfred Henry Foster, who died in French in the war is A child of Henry and Elizabeth Fenton, so the family that went to see his grave not long ago , he isn't even related, only through marriage?

    So its the second one, to be honest her name Elizabeth Barker and the photo was sourced by family, not ancestry, I assumed Barker was her maiden name, but maybe she married a barker, split and married a foster, and had Alexandra perca somewhere in-between? she was a bit of a floozy so I heard :)

She went on to marry a foster, and had three children, one being Alfred Henry foster, he fought in the war and died in France, some family went to see his grave a few months back. The relation is right as we have some personal...
