Hi GrahamH, Good to get your response to this post. (And weird as my spouse is a GrahamH).
His grandmother was a Jaques, sister of Richard's 2nd wife Grace Jaques. I'd tried to identify all her siblings and then down through the decades. We heard of the Wadsworths from my f.in.law - he was a contemporary of Richard's 3rd child Ann b. 1901 who married Joseph Dyer. And of course we visited the various inns et connected with Richard, later Ann and her sibling Sam, when we visited Barnsley, Platts Common etc. Pheasant Inn, The Cross Keys and later Rockingham Arms at Wentworth. My Father in law came to Australia 1926 but kept up links with family as did we.
Somewhere I have a photo which includes Sam & Mabel Wadsworth, Ann Dyer and son Jos, Dick Wadsworth as well as 3 or 4 of the Jaques sisters. taken abt 1940. Someone has it up on Ancestry now.
I know nothing of Richard's forebears, having concentrated on his children from both marriages. Found 7 grandchildren - 4 now deceased and have not traced 3 ggc. Regards from the Antipodes. Heather
