Percy William Leigh married Ann May Earl Church (Aka May)

They Had 4 children Reginald Thomas Frederick Leigh 16/02/1915 Mt Morgan, served in WW2 My Grandma Cecil Albert Leigh 9/01/1919 Mt Morgan, served in WW2 And Tom, I have not found any details on Tom yet, not sure where he fits in with the family. Dad told me that Tom and his Dad Percy were both in the merchant marines for the USA but I have never found anything on this.

All Gerties brothers died before Gertie. I think they all died from heart problems including Gertie as she had a heart attack at home.
