  • Notes 
    • ALFRED YATES

      Was a Church Warden at Tottington St Annes from 1940-1956.

      Left Gertrude and lived with Margaret Greenhalgh in Prestatyn for many years.

      They probably did not marry until after Gertrude had died in 1967 as Alfred was probably never divorced. Alfred and Margaret may not have actually married.
