About 'Con' Arnsby

Named after his maternal Grandfather, Victoria Cross recipient, Cornelius Coughlan.

Con and Bab's divorce strained the family, unfortunately, when Babs and her second husband died everything went to his son, all Babs letters and photographs were 'lost'.

Con's second wife, Teresa, was from Germany. She had been previously married and had children, at least one child from that marriage, a male.
