Information about the family from Richard Collins submitted on March 5, 2022:
John comes from a branch of the family going back to George Wickenden (born 1770). The line then passes to another George (b 1820), then Frederick (b 1856), then Ernest (b 1884), then John's father Bernard (b 1924). Bernard is my Grandma's brother. My Grandma, Beatrice Olive Wickenden (b 18 April 1913) parents were Ernest Wickenden (b 16 March 1884) and Beatrice Ethel Skipper (b 17 September 1882). Ernest's parents were Frederick Wickenden (b 5 October 1856) and Marie Antoinette Sutton (b 29 March 1857)
