Good morning everyone

I hope you are all enjoying the Bank holiday break.
Again I would like to thank everyone for their time taken to help me with this search.
I have been given advise along the way of what you should and should not be putting on the boards and agree what that so moving forward will think before posting.

Dea
I have re read the post a couple of times and now see that Bessie was not a servant at Poltimore House as stated which has not solved the mystery, sorry x

I shall start looking on freebmd today to see what I can find on there.
Im going to look at direct line today so this is what I have so far

His Mother
Bessie Ebdon - born 1895 Devon Exeter
Her Father
John Henry Ebdon - born 1861 Devon Exeter
