Hi Gillian, Fanny Edwards (I knew her as Aunty Daisy) was my grandmother's sister.  My husband and I have had an afternoon out in Shrewsbury today and I started to talk about my ancestry. I looked on the internet for references to The Wherry Public House and came across your post on Roots Chat.  Fanny Edward's father was John Thomas Pritchard, born in Shrewsbury.  My grandmother was Alice Maud Mary Pritchard one of sixteen children.  I too have heard the story that Daisy and her husband were at The Wherry and they
brought up a large family there.  I am in touch with two of Daisy's grandchildren, who live in Shropshire.  I can give you more information on the Pritchard family if you are interested.
