Thank you Mike,
You are correct; they are all my ancestors except for Arthur Rawlins (I don't know who he is and

Hello Helen,
I just saw your posting with the name Steadman. I'm sorry for the loss of your family member.
I am wondering if your Steadman family might have a Stanley A Steadman in their tree who married Beryl J Rawlins in 1949.
Kind Regards from very wet and cold Massachusetts.
