Hi

Stan Duberley was my grandfathers brother (Ernest). There were 10 children (7 boys and 3 girls) although 1 died soon after birth. Stan was born in 1894 and died in 1963. He died whilst queuing up to see Wales play the All Blacks in Cardiff. He had played for Gloucestershire against the All Blacks in 1923/24. He was a big man and very much like my grandfather.

He married Elizabeth Mary Gibbs (b28/12/1896) on 23/03/1916. They had 5 children Ellen Agnes (b07/10/1916), Elsie Marion (b01/11/1919), Frank John (b27/09/1921), Mavis Nora (b1925) and Ivy Megan (b29/03/1931). All except Ellen are still alive and each had children. I met Frank and Ivy recently and they had a copy of the Watkins story about being saved in the 1st World War. And they are very proud of this story and their father's rugby achievements.

If you want any more information then please ask.

Paul Duberley
