I think Alice May Beard is my mother's ( Lena Grace Stride )uncle Ted's wife. They lived in or around Pontefract Yorkshire where my great uncle Teddy worked as General Manager at the Pomfret cakes factory. He drove a French Citroen car for many years. There was a link between him and Alice and my mothers cousin Pat Beard who moved to Tasmania after retiring from the Royal Air Force back in the early 1960's.
