A Teesside cousine remembers that his wife was named Veronica, so this has to be them.
________________

Joseph and Veronica are thought to have had at least two children, Louise and Gerard, plus a probable third.  Here are the births in Lancashire of Welford children with mother’s maiden name of Jones and born between 1957 and 1977:

Last Name First Name Born Died Event Location

Welford Gerard Peter 1969 — 1969 Prescot, Lancashire
