I am researching the Freemen of Nottingham and would like some help please on the above named. I know he was born in Nottingham 1876 and died 1961, he was a solicitor, an Alderman of Nottingham and was knighted (I have no details of when etc) so anything else would be a bonus from anyone, many thanks for your help in advance
kind regards
