As far as we know.  My Grandfather found out there was a Fist fight of some kind, there were bare knuckle fighters in the family.  His father Ronald and his elk changed their names to Lock for cover, so they could go unpunished for a Murder that was commited.


I will try to get more information for you.


Also, do you know if this crest is connected to the Gypsy Boswells.



Im an artist and im very interested in meeting Boswells or learning more about the Boswell family, as far as we know - we are connected to Esmerelda Boswell who was married to the Town Clark. (Bridgenorth)

He's still alive and wants someone in the family to try to find out who is actual parents were.  He was raised as a lock, but later on in life he found out that there was a murder in the Boswell family and in order to protect him and his siblings, they assumed the identity of 'Lock' members.  I will be visiting him in a month or so, to chat and write down any information.  His Father would be Ronald Boswell. 


My grandfather was like his Father, a scrap man.  However this was just one of his many occupations. Granddad was in the merchant navy, my mother also told me an amusing story about how Granddad had an amazing singing voice but was extremely shy about it at the same time.  He would sing for military personnel in cabaret shows, but would be too nervous.  So he used to sing with his back to the audience. lol


I will try to find out more information for you and post it.

My name is Ryan Wood.  (Telford Shropshire)

Nice to meet you.
