Welcome to genesreunited, Rachel.

Getting Stanley's will might be useful:

BAKES STANLEY WALTER 05 March 2003 1174722 06 November 2002 Grant and will Liverpool

(From
https://probatesearch.service.gov.uk/#wills )

Marjory E Bakes, born 1905 from 1939 census, probate from George Maurice Bakes's will.

Apply for that will also?

Look for children from the marriage.

So it seems that Herbert Douglas is from a different family than the others you mention.

Since Stanley's mother's maiden name was Foster this is probably parents' marriage:

Wow, thank you everyone. Didn't get any notifications of these so just popped on to see and there are loads of replies! I'll work my way through them....

These aren't my direct ancestors but I've not done a lot of research on my direct line and so am starting to explore siblings families in a bit more depth and searching for any living relatives that may be around. Trying to trace the lines back down, thanks for your help!

I wasn't aware that you could get wills for people that have died in the last 50 years or something? Unless you are next of kin?

Yes, you can get very recent wills, on-line, after a few days and £10.

I am married to Maurice Bakes (grandson of George Maurice Bakes and Eileen nee Hunter). I would love to touch base with you!

Welcome to the boards, Lily.

As Rachel probably isn’t checking this thread anymore, send her a message by clicking on her name. As long as she still has access to the linked email address, she’ll be notified that you wish to communicate with her.

Thank you detective, (and by the way for anyone reading the post it’s actually George Maurice Bakes and MARJORY Eileen Hunter that are grandparents of my husband.
