Durham / Re: Ebchester Low Mill and the Wardles
« on: Monday 28 January 13 18:43 GMT (UK)  »
Hi Lynne.
Thanks for your kind offer that would be great. The James Stratton Wardle on the war memorial is my husbands uncle. He married Mary Armstrong (of the Armstrong Bus Co. family [Ebchester]) and they had a son Brian who is also deceased.
My father in law was John Howcroft Wardle, he died in 1983.  The only surviving brother is Robert (Bob) Wardle. Their parents were Elizabeth Howcroft and Robert Wardle.  Oak dale and Earlwood houses were built by the brothers' grandparents.
The headstone for Charles S Wardle could be Charles Stratton Wardle as Stratton is a family name.
I will speak with Bob this weekend and see if he can come up with any further information.
Kind regards
Lynne

Hi. My husband is a Wardle. We live in Ebchester as do his Mother and Uncle. Uncle Bob (aged 88 years) is also descended from the Wardles  from the Poss Stick Mill.  His 2 brothers Jack (John) and Stratton are both deceased.  We can make some enquiries for you if you have anything in particular to ask. Bob is very knowledgeable about the local history and has lived in the same house, which belonged to his parents, all his life.
Regards
Lynne
