Gwendoline Beatrice Isaac (1901-    )

Gwendoline Beatrice Isaac was born in January 1901 in Chickerell, Weymouth, Dorset. She married William Davenport in the last quarter of 1917 at Weymouth.

William was known as Bill and was from the Bury, Lancashire area. He worked in the mills. It is possible he met Gwendoline whilst on a trip to Weymouth as there was a direct train from Manchester to Weymouth. It is also possible that her niece, Gwen Knight, also went to stay with them for a while.

Child of Gwendoline Isaac and William Davenport is:

Betty Davenport was born in 1920 at 8 Booth Road, Little Lever, Bolton. She married Ronald Jackson at Heywood in 1942. They moved to to Allstree, Derbyshire.

Betty had a son and daughter, Keith and Shirley, whom I would like to put back in touch with their mothers cousin. They used to live in Allstree, Derbyshire.

 

In 1938 Betty's cousin Gwen Knight stayed with the family at Dumer's Lane, Bury, whilst she was in charge of the Odeon Cinema there.
