CommentsGOULD published by - 5 years 26 days ago. | | Hello all, so sorry, somehow I missed this whole discussion, and I didn't get a message on Ancestry either Peter. Apologies. I go through phases of researching (largely when I can find the time) and I must have not been online or something for a period. I have just read the above thread with interest! To answer the question of where I got the dates from, I have actually been passed most of the details on my tree from my father's cousin who, now in her 80s, did a great deal of the family history research by hand, going round record offices and archives etc and well before the days of the internet. She gave me a GEDCOM file with lots of dates and names but I didn't have all the records or documents for them. I've been focusing on building on that initial research and adding documentation where I can. I have my own blog at https://www.meetmyancestor.com but I haven't focused on the GOULD history yet. I've been focusing on JAMES and FRY history from the early Town commissioners and first hotel developments. I'm very interested in all that you've found out though as I do believe my 5 X Great Grandparents were William and Hannah GOULD (nee BEACHAM). I would love to see a copy of the will mentioned above? And I'm guessing we're somehow related Robin? Have you done your DNA on Ancestry?? Best wishes, Honey | |

Locking Road School 1936 published by daveerasmus - 5 years 1 months 1 day ago. | | Thanks, Pat. That's a great idea. Unfortunately I have had to close my Facebook account because of security issues. But I'm happy for you to post it on my behalf if you're willing to do it? Surnames that can be recalled include: SEDGEBEER, DAY, MILLARD, PARKER, BOLTON, HILLIER, WEAVER, HERMAN, FARR, LOCK, RYDE, STURCH, HEWLETT, MADGE, ROSCOE, MARTIN, OWENS, COLLARD. | |
Locking Road School 1936 published by Pat Hase - 5 years 1 months 1 day ago. | | This is a great photograph - as it doesn't seem to have produced any response from our members perhaps you would like to put it on our Facebook Group to see if anyone on that recognises a face. Without giving the full names, are there any obviously local surnames which could be mentioned to jog memories?. | |
RITCHIE published by - 5 years 1 months 4 days ago. | | I have a number of pictures taken in the 1920s at the guest house at Maycot, 12 Beaufort Road, that include many people I can't identify. These could be family members but also friends or even guests from Weston or elsewhere.
If anyone would like to see these photos to identify possible ancestors of theirs, I'd be glad to share them. | |
