Thank you June, I’ve updated the post with this info.
Will Elliott and his wife Eunice (know as Toots for some reason) emigrated to Australia, in the 1920s I think. and lived in the Perth area for the rest of their lives. Their daughter Kathleen, known by her second name of Doris, stayed in touch with her English cousins and visited the UK several times. She lived into her 90s and died only a few years ago.
Hi Rita, thanks for the information. It’s always interesting to see where life took them after the war. Kind Regards, Kieron
