Thank you to Gareth for the following comment submitted on: 2021/02/14

I've been studying your brilliant website on Hull, my great grandfathers family moved from Belfast to Hull around 1900.

I've been researching my family tree and my Grandmothers cousin Margaret Theresa Allen married to a William Henry Todd in 1913.

They had two children Jane Ann B 1914 & Gladys Esther B 1915 before he joined up to fight for King & County.

William H Todd was killed in Action on the 3 Oct 1918 he was with the 10th East Yorkshire Regiment very sadly his wife died died of the Spanish Flu on the 8 Nov 1918. I just wondered if you had come across either of these names on your research or can you point me direction to find information, i'm in Ireland so not familiar with research in Hull.  Thanks in advance.
