There was a Harold Ward Cherry born 1893 in Clay Cross by Chesterfield to William H. Cherry and Annie Ward.
An Evelyn Jane Kennish was born 1897 in Barrow to Alfred Kennish and Esther Kinnish.

Whilst Alfred and Esther were married in Barrow 1891, they were both from the Isle of Man. Esther had another daughter Louisa born 1888 but there would be others from the marriage.

It is probable that Harold Ward Cherry married Mabel Southgate in Chesterfield 1922 so if it is the right person a second marriage to Evelyn is in that 20 year band to 1942.

Your friend may be able to tell you if any of this matches family information.
