	Hi Chris Ho,The date I have for George Anthony Andrews should be about that year as my grandmother was born around that time Maybe there is 10 yrs different in age, the death date on Ann Cardiff post sounds about right .When George travelled to his homeland he was married to my grandmother in 1943 ,it could have been his 2nd marriage but my G/Mothers 1st. I have no marriage cert but will order this. thank you Ann and Shirley this info was of great help. Regards lee77
