Notes for Major Alec Puleston Henderson
m. (1) (1905) Henrietta Emily Bertie who dsp in 1913, (2) Gladys Rhoda Maclean.

His parents were Alexander Henderson, first baronet and first baron Faringdon, and Jane E Davis.

And from this all connections from Gladys Rhoda Maclean corroborated in Burke’s 107th edition of their Peerage of 2003, vol I, p. 1389.  So all the previously inserted probables have been removed and I will continue to find the rest of the public records to finally confirm all this.


Cannot clearly identify his birth.  Must await 1922 census or obtain their marriage cert to give his age and his father.

Later: from the Ancestry image of the marriage register I learnt his age, full name and that he was a widower and a major in the army.
