Research and responses

There are other entries from a Captain and Mrs Denton and a Mrs Denton which might also be from George Chardin Denton [and his wife, actually called Jean Margaret Alan Denton, died 1900] but as Denton is not an uncommon name I have not added this possibility to the PRM source field for these entries, calling up Denton calls up the 70 relevant total entries [AP 19/11/2001]
