Subject: DAWSON, ARMES, BOONE/BONES

My grandfather Herbert Dawson b. 1878 d. 1932, m. Elizabeth Armes b.1882 d. 1926. Now we come to the confusing part. She had a son, Fred Armes b.1901 d. 1956. Death certificate for Fred says father : Fred Armes mother's maiden name was Boone. Her death certificate says father: Thomas Armes, mother Margaret Bones. Herbert's death certificate has nothing for father's name, mother's maiden name Boone, but believed to be John, and mother Elizabeth.
Fred came to USA with friends or relatives, Richard and Mary Edwards in 1908. Grandparents Herbert and Elizabeth, came over later in 1912, with other children, Ivy, 5 yrs old, Eva, 3 yrs, Alice 2. They all lived in Great Massingham, Norfolk, England. My grandmother, Eliazbeth, was born in West Rudham. Her first son, Fred, in West Rudham, and so was Ivy, Eva and Alice.
Grandmother used to talk about Aunt Susan, and they used to write to Grandfathers brother and sister Alfred and Minnie. Postmarked Cromer (spelling could be off). Please, any help appreciated. I must have cousins over there somewhere. I have a site with photo's of grandparents, called Dawson's from England. http://communities.msn.com/DawsonsfromEngland
I am hoping somebody else recognizes them from their own photo album.
