I got carried away in the excitement of seeing my family name. My Grandma was Nellie. If your wife's family was Baimbridge then we are on track but, if it was Bainbridge we are not from the same line.
Tommy did not live in Huddersfield as an adult. Is your wife Bill's grandaughter? I don't live in Huddersfield at the moment but will share what I know and tell you of family members in Huddersfield who might help you. I have traced the family to Derbyshire. Although we are of Irish decent. Also there are some half siblings to the children you have already mentioned. One was the caretaker at my school. He is still on the electoral roll. Have you done a 192.com people search for people named Baimbridge in Huddersfield? He is on there and so is his brother.

Thanks for your reply, if you make one more post and I can email you a PM . We thought it might be Nellie. Yes we are of the Baimbridge line. Yes she is Bills grandaughter from one of his daughters, The way the name gets mixed up is really difficult when trying to do this sort of thing! Tommy lived in portsmouth and my wife visit with her grandparents she knew there were others but who and were she never knew.

Hi
I am happy we are all of the Baimbridge line. I used to visit Ethel in Portsmouth.
My gran used to spend weeks and weeks there. I met Walter, Betty and Josie and Kevin (half sibling). I kind of recall meeting Benny but, not Bill.
There was also a stillbirth of a girl called Olive born before Walter.
