Linda Report 28 Mar 2017 16:38

Hello,
I'm looking for any information on Blanche May Temple, born 1896/7. Married Percy Archibald Galpin in 1920, died 1923. They had a daughter Doris Blanche Galpin (my mother) in 1921. I believe my mother had an aunt Annie Tester possibly born 1877.
any information on Blanche and her descendants would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you to everyone who has come back with info. I did find Sarah and Gray Temple but wasn't sure if they were correct but I now think they are in my tree. Also, I have seen Maud but I think she is not in my tree. Does anyone have a photo of Blanche May Galpin? My deceased mother always wanted to see a photo of her birth mother but sadly never got the chance.

Kind regards
Linda

Linda, you say that Maud is not in your tree but she certainly looks like a sister of Blanche even though father's name is mis-spelled. His occupation is billiards marker.
