I am trying to find out any information about my Grandad who was born Percy Harold Davis in 1917 in Stone, Nr Kidderminster, Worcestershire but was brought up in Gloucestershire (possibly Painswick) and changed his surname to Jones when he was a teenager after his father (James Davis) died. I believe his mother was called Florence Jones and that she died in childbirth possibly a couple of years after Percy was born. He had two older brothers called Alec and Sidney who kept the surname Davis. I am told that Alec moved to the North West of England (possibly Blackpool) to run a Hotel and Sidney stayed in Worcester. I am unable to trace this part of the family back any further as I have no idea when or where James and Florence were born. Any information at all would be greatly appreciated. Thanks Hayley |
