The one point in Crawford-6676 which is correct but not included in Crawford-17170 is the date of the wedding - 16 December 1936, which, as I say, was in Kitale, Kenya.
Originally you had down that Sarita was married to a John Crawford, which I corrected because it was inaccurate. John Crawford is their youngest son.
Walter's father was a clergyman, and at the time of Walter's birth (1907) was based in Portrush, Co Antrim, some 60 miles from where I now live.
