    Paternal - Arthur Ernest

    DP
    Maternal - Richard
    Paternal - Rupert Roy

    Both DP and my maternal grandfathers were not given middle names as they were not expected to live and an additional name was an unwelcome cost in the event of the death of a child. My maternal grandfather passed away at age 63 (a month of 64) and DPs maternal grandfather is still going strong
