Looking to trace any decendants of Ada May Robinson born around 1870 in Welton - or her father William Robinson~ born around 1838 who was an Estate Agent in Welton? Ada May married Frederick Ernest Anderson of Bradford~ Yorkshire in 1900 - believed to have later moved to London/Hertforshire. Would be really grateful for any snippets you may have - please email me~ I've loads of lovely old photos of Welton too.

Hi~ I am looking for information about my ancestors - Crowther (Crowder)~ Lacy and Levitt's around the area in the 18th and 19th centuries. I would also like to find out some information about Brafford's Hall as my ggg grandfather John Lacy was said to have been the head gardener there and I believe one of his daughters was born there. Thanks.

• Hello Joanne, Your ggg grandfather was the Head gardener at Brafford's hall and I believe he was married to Mary ann Crowther. He was there in early 1800. Followed my line and got to John Lacy.
