Biographical notes

In the 1901 Census, Lydia is stated to be the grandaughter of John Langdon and Margaret Brookman. However, an comment left bya user on the Census record on the Ancestry website states 'According to Lydia's birth certificate she was the Daughter of John and Margaret Langdon, NOT grand-daughter'. This would mean that her mother, Margaret Brookman would have been aged 48 when Lydia was born.

Married William R.L. Bone in Cardiff, 1923
