Amy Alice Vertue Notes:

Married Ernest D Crouch in 1933 in Croydon. I believe this is David Ernest Crouch, born 1900 as I can find no Ernest David Crouch.

“Amy worked at her brother Clement`s Corn Chandlery & Seed Merchants business in West Norwood High Street. In the 1911 Census Amy is still at home with her parents and brother Clement at 12 Cranfield Villas, West Norwood. Although she is 21 and single there is no occupation listed for her.”
