Yorkshire (West Riding) / Re: HORWELL
« on: Monday 03 June 13 15:04 BST (UK) »HI,
I AM LOOKING FOR HORWELL`S IN YORKSHIRE.
MY PATERNAL GRANDMOTHER WAS EDITH MAVIS HORWELL FROM ACOMB,YORK.
SHE HAD A SISTER ELSIE WHO EMIGRATED TO CANADA BEFORE WW2.
SHE HAD A RELATIVE GEORGE HORWELL WHO WAS AN HIGH RANKING OFFICER AT SCOTLAND YARD IN THE 1950`s
I HAVE NO CONTACT WITH THIS HALF OF THE FAMILY SO IT MAKES RESEARCH DIFFICULT.
EDITH`S FATHER WAS ALSO A GEORGE HORWELL
MANY THANKS
Hi, I am Robert Horwell from Scarborough, my family hail from York, Charlie horwell (1863 ) married Ellen Oliver. I remember my father talking about an inspector at Scotland Yard who was part of the family.
