Malcolm Black was my father's half cousin.
My great grandfather remarried after the death of his first wife (Sarah Town)
We start with Wallace Bruce Black who had 3 children
Bruce, James, and Elizabeth
He had Ada and Sidney with his second wife (Sarah Ledger)
Sidney had 3 children Malcolm Neville, Joan and Kathleen.
I know Malcolm died from drowning but have no details as to what actually happened.
As a note: My grandfather Bruce served 13 years in the Grenadier Guards and changed his name (nobody knows why) to Frederick Wallace. Hence my father was James Wallace who had 3 siblings.
