Arthur Sandiland Weldon

Arthur Sandiland Weldon, born April 25th, 1886 in the Potteries, Whiston, Lancashire. died about September 1969.

He was the son of Joseph Welding and Rachel Hardman. In my research this is a popular soundex form of the Weldon name.

He married Margaret Rebecca Edwards on August 5th, 1911 at the Presbyterian Church, Earle Road, West Derby, Liverpool.

In 1911, Arthur worked as a Cable setter at the Cable works in Huyton, prior to marrying Margaret he lived at the family Fish and Chip shop, run by his mother, Rachel. The shop, which also sold milk and some fresh supplies was at number 2 Hall Lane in Huyton Quarry.
