To Ms Scarecrow!
The information that I have is that Kenneth Alford's daughter , Violet, married a Mr Rose in South Africa and after his death, married my husbands grandfather, John Herbert Atkinson in Cape Town.   This information was given to me by my late mother in law who always spoke about her Mom in law as being the daughter of the bandmaster Kenneth J Alford.
I would be very interested to hear whatever information you have on him.
