Hi Paui

Yes we still live in Armorial Road.

Presently I am writing up  the Usher Family History. I am in a muddle with regards to them in the 1700s. I can't fathom out who belongs to who. My Nephews wife will help me but she lives in Northampton she does family history so could be of some help.

I haven't touched it for 4 years as I belong to a women's writers group writing about Coventry Women and we have just published our 9th book. I am not going to write for a year in the hope of getting the Usher family written up.

I can't get your Private message off. my email address is (*) If you would like to send it to me.

Hi

Thanks for reply, I wonder if the lady in the picture is J H Ushers second wife jJane Alice Usher nee Wales?

Is Jean and your father Keith still alive. I am David Atkins wife - Robert died in 1995 whilst visiting Australia for his sons Nick wedding.

A little more about the Lifeboat Medal that was awarded to J H Usher.  Go into Google punch in Swiftsure Bridlington and scroll down to Kit Brown Bridlington it will tell you all about it along with a picture of the five fishermen.
If you want any further info please contact me.

Hi Midlands Boy - I'm very excited!!!!

Yes it is my husbands Grandmother and Gt. Grandfather. Who is the other lady and the boy?

Are you related to Jean and  Albert Ball or to Keith Fisher?

Did you know that J H Usher was awarded with a Life Boat Medal and Board of Trade Medal for a rescue in a Gale? He was one the the Victoria Five and there is a picture of the the 5 fishermen at the Life Boat Station in Bridlington. I do have a photo of the 5 of them.

Keep in touch.

I have a newspaper cutting The Storm which is not dated and does not give where it was published.

My husbands grandmother was  Violet Atkin (nee Usher) who was Harry Usher's sister. Sarah Ann Usher was Violets Aunt . Violet's father was John Hindson Usher.

I do not have a family tree as I am doing the write up of the family and then will do the tree.

If I can help you with anything further, Please contact me.
