WEEK 42

18 Lister Street

Gwynneth Ann Early, born in Rotherham, is my third cousin, once removed and daughter of George Edward Early and Blanche Seston.

Gwynneth was born in 1951 and lived with her family at 18 Lister Street in Rotherham. After returning home from work one evening, Gwynneth complained that she was suffering from a headache and so decided to go to sleep in the hope she’d feel better. However, Gwynneth sadly suffered a fatal brain haemorrhage.
