Biography
The family identifies Beryl as George Hawes’s wife in their surviving wedding portrait. The archive displays the original rotated upright, without the rejected generated restoration. The wedding date and place remain unknown.
Family in 1956
A newspaper cutting dated 30 May 1956 shows George with his wife and two children. The family identifies his wife as Beryl. The article describes George’s forthcoming missionary appointment in Kenya; it does not by itself establish Beryl’s travel arrangements or her own work.
Research
The family records give Beryl’s maiden surname as Benford; this remains to be checked against the marriage record. Her early life, marriage registration and dates remain to be established. The children’s names are withheld for privacy.
