My great great grandfather was William Percival born in North Crawley around 1840. His son was Walter Eli Percival and was born in the same village in 1863. By 1868 the family had moved to the North London area and were employed in building the railways. If anyone has any information on the Percivals / Percifulls / Percifuls (the name gets spelled in many ways on the census etc) from North Crawley please do get in touch. There were 3 Percivals who served in the forces as recently as WW2 from the village but the last of the family do seem to now have left the area. Martin Percival
