Hi,My names Kim,I'm trying to get details of my maturnal grandmothers family.My grandmothers name was Sarah Taylor(though everyone called her Sally)she had 2 brothers called Bill & Fred(I think, though not certain on this one!) there was definitely 2 sisters Lil & Nancy & possibly another sister who's name I can't remember.The order of birth was: Bill & Fred(not sure who was oldest),the unknown sister & Lil(not sure who was older) Sally (my nan) d.o.b 13/10/1912 & the youngest was Nancy(about 2 years younger). My Nan married Arthur Metcalfe and had 2 children,the first of which Victor died of Diptheria in the W.W.2 & my Mom Jean d.o.b 14/05/1948. I don't know much about my g.grandparents except my nans Dad left his wife to look after all the children & ran off to Blackpool with another women. As a child my nan lived on a small holding in a little village called Coven between Wolverhampton & Stafford as they could not afford to live in the town. I don't know my g.grandparents names where they were from or what happened to Bill, Fred or unknown sister but I know Lil married and had at least 5 children,the youngest of which called Victor died @ about 16 of a heart condition. the other children were Doreen,Reg,Pam & another brother(can't remember name)who became a Vicar. Nancy married had 1 Daughter Ann & ended up living in The Isle of Man. I would love to find out more about my g.grandparents and my Nans older brothers & sister but as most of the above mentioned are now deceased information is difficult to get hold of so if anyone knows anything please contact me. It would also be nice to know more about my Grandad Arthur Metcalfe.All I know is he & my Nan met when they both worked @ Corthalls in Wolverhampton & he died around 1970 of a stroke.Thanks! |
