Wow, thanks again both of you. Second cousins, that's amazing John! Mary-Ann does sound right for my grandmother now, I hardly remember her but we visited by grandfather almost every week after she died. Eventually he went into a home in Wellingborough where he died but I do know they were both buried at Ecton close if not together and I am positive I remember where, to with in a few yards (quite close to Gerald's and another Tipler by some trees/bushes as I remeber, may have been Sarah?) but no stones. I can even remember grandfathers funeral. I contacted someone in the village last year via the Ecton website and they were able to check the records and confirm this burials but unfortunately there didn't seem to be a record of specific plots. My mother and father settled in Luton where I was born, and both are now buried there. I presume you have my sister (now leaves near Spalding) and 12 year old son on your tree! (and thanks I will PM you by the way).

Hi thanks for the replies.

My grandmother died I think aged about 81 when I was very young, not even sure of her first name, may have been elizabeth but my grandfather lived into his 90's and was George Alfred Tipler. He lived in the High Street with his front door facing directly up the road leading to the church. I have found out from information on the Ecton Village website that his father was Henry and mother was Fanny. Not sure from the information on the website whether Henry had 5 or 6 other children as well as my grandfather. My father was Denis Tipler and he is shown in a school photo on the Ecton website. He had 2 brothers, Lionel and Gerald (whose grave is in the churchyard). Although I remember tending both grandparents (and Gerald's) graves when I was a boy I now cannot find any memorial stones although I was sure I remembered where the graves were!

thanks for your offers of help.
regards
Ashley

Hi, hope you don't mind me getting in touch but I've just stumbled upon this site whilst looking for any information about my recent ancestors (my son has a homework to attempt a basic family tree!). I'm don't intend going back anywhere near as far and as comprehensively as you have but it would be nice to know a bit more to pass on e.g. about my grand and great-grandparents who came from Ecton. I've recently visited the churchyard which I hadn't been to since I was a child and unfortunately was surprised to find I cannot even locate my grandparents graves although I was able to show my boy many other Tipler graves!

All the best

Ashley Tipler
