Possible children to the marriage

Births Dec 1911
Dean Ada L Williams W. Derby 8b 1080

Births Mar 1913
Dean Nellie Williams W.Derby 8b 1150

Births Dec 1917
Dean Jessie Williams W. Derby 8b 812

There is another Dean/Williams marriage in 1911 so cannot be certain these are correct.

Its good to see there is still progress being made on this long-running project. Is there any chance of a summary showing those still untraced? It would help those of us who get an idle moment for a bit more digging.

[By the way, Amanda, well done with your two latest findings on the St James memorial].
