Heraldry Crests and Coats of Arms / Williams of staffordshire and hackney London
« on: Friday 05 September 25 04:31 BST (UK)  »
Hi , My brother is looking at finding a coat of arms for our Williams family . In 1794 they were in Staffordshire of unknown origin or employment . The next generation John Williams was in Hackney London and I believe the family are there to this day . They seem to have been labourers , tailors and I dong think they would have a coat of arms . Where would I start to look in case I am wrong . Is there a generic one and does it have any relevance to our family . I know nothing of heraldry or where to start . Thank you . Fred .

I have this old photo of a family soldier . I may be able to narrow it down if I was told which regiment, rank and possible date and I might be able to narrow down which side of family he comes from , many thanks . Fred.

Berkshire / George Russell family Hambledon. Buckinghamshire .

Hi ,my sister will be visiting Little Marlow and  Hambledon in July 2025. We recently discovered that George Russell married Martha Symonds . They were living as elderly people in an Alms House in Hambledon . I assume …. Not know  … that they died there . Would they be in an unmarked grave or does anyone know the Alm House mentioned and if it had its own graveyard . Any help will be much appreciated . My Russell family ranged from 1730 until 1830 in the area . My great great grandmother was Charlotte Sophia Russell d/o Richard Russell born in Bray . Thanks for any hints . Fred

So Woody if you heard it from Rebecca’s family she was Abraham Moore sister . Abraham Moore went on to Marry my gt gt grandmother Charlotte Sophia Jutsum née Russell . So I am guessing we are related by marriage . Charlotte known as Sophia lived with Ambraham in Neckringer Road and Canon Munane Road in Bermondsey . Did you ever hear family stories of them . Or the scandal of Sophia and George ( her first husband ) daughter Fanny and her life story . Love to hear from you . Fred .
Charlotte and George Jutsum ( then Abraham Moore )
Alice Sophia and John Jennings
Lillian Ada and William Williams
Mollie Elizabeth and Jim Wharton .

Armed Forces / Armoured car 1944-45. Southall .
« on: Saturday 11 January 25 19:48 GMT (UK)  »
My friend remembers building armoured cars in Southall 1944-45 . He has given me some notes l he says it was not the Matador . The cars had police escorts to get through streets . Wheels were five foot high . 3 inch gun on top of. His father was Cedric Newmarch but he doesn’t know if Cedric was a mechanic or a pilot , as per his notes . Is there any one here that knows which vechile was built 1944-45 . I am happy to share notes . Fred .
