• Notes

  It is not clear how they met, and I have not found any newspaper articles that might have accompanied their marriage. But a curiosity is that in 1921, HVD was a "boarder" at the house owned by Edward Turner (EFT's uncle). At the time, HVD was a "clerk" working for the Ministry of Pensions in Manchester - one of a number of regional branches of the Ministry of Pensions charged with ensuring that soldiers, sailors and others received disability and other benefits. Edward Turner describes himself as a "commercial clerk" for Cunliffe and Cooper, exporters. I have not found out any more about them, but I wonder if HVD both met EFT through Edward, especially as they were all baptists, and whether he got into the grocery business as a result of talking to Edward (plus the Ministry of Pensions soon left Manchester, presumably as their work was winding down.
