I am looking for any living relatives of the Latham Family who may be able to help me further in my family history research. Alfred Latham was the licencee of the White Lion until his death in 1950. I am already aware of his daughter, Daisy's connections to Edingdale but have drawn blanks on the rest of his family other than I found his son's grave in the the church yard.

I was wondering if there were any relative of the Hunt and Stafford Families still living in Polesworth. My Grandfather was Albert Hunt and Lived on Fairfield Hill, my other Grandfather was Henry Stafford who living at the end of the Gullet off Fairfield Hill.
Albert was born in Fazeley and married Gertrude Stafford around 1911 and lived on Fairfield Hill till about 1960 ish
Henry was I believe born in Burton Hastings and married Sarah Jane Harrison
There is I believe a largish family grave in Polesworth Churchyard close to the Wall of the church,
If anyone has any extra information I would be most grateful.

I was thrilled to locate this site on my computer and hope that someone can help me with my family history. My Mother's brother~ Ernest William Tooth~ married a Peggy Brown from Dordon in December~ 1949. After they retired~ they moved to Bournemouth and have since passed away. Other than her name and a few photos of my Aunty Peggy~ I have absolutely no o ther information about her at all - where she was born and when~ any other family she had~ her occupation so if anyone can give me any information at all for my Family Tree~ it would be very much appreciated. Thanks.

Does anyone remember the Kneebone family. The couple moved into Dordon (New Street) around 1900 and had 9 children between then and 1920. Does anyone remember anything about them or better still have any photos. Im on the trail of my ancestors and any bits of information would be of interest. Thanks~ **Deborah.
