Hi
I am new to this site.
I am looking for as much info on Harry Thorneycroft M.P. as I can. Does anybody have anything? I understand 'soxmis' on this forum is Harry's great nephew?
I wonder if you have found any information that I haven't been able to find yet - eg. did he have any children? I have found that he had a nephew H. Rowley from Boothstown but do not know anything about him - does anybody know? I know Harry died in London - was he buried there? I live in Sussex so can't get to Manchester often to research.
I have found conflicting information from 2 sources about Harry's parents - one source says his parents were Richard Thornicroft and Alice Ann Saville and another source says they were Edward Thornicroft and Elizabeth Atkinson - very confusing. Can anyone confirm?
I would be very grateful for any snippets of info you can give me.
