Trafford

Commemorated on the private family gravestone in the Jewish Cemetery,
Urmston, which mentions that he had a wife.

His father, Abraham died 16/12/1942 aged 65 years and his mother, Jane died
25/11/1940.   Gravestone also mentions that he had a widow, but does not
give her name.

Both Abraham & Jane Watelsky are recorded on the 1911 census returns, but
not Leslie.   I have not been able to find a record of his birth.

1911 Census - Abraham Watelsky - Head - Married - aged: 34 - occ: Yailor in
Factory - born: Russia.       Jane Watelsky - Wife -Married - aged: 33 -
Grocery Shopkeeper - born: Russia.   They had been married for 14 years -
presumably in Russia as there is no British record of the marriage.   They
produced 11 children, of whom 9 were still alive and all the surviviors
were born in the UK.

M.I. - "In proud memory of a beloved husband, daddy and brother.  Sadly
missed".

Both the CD & the CWGC list his name as Leslie Bartell.

Kia in Burma.
