[Max Linder]

Thanks for the info!!!


The farm was Alport farm Claypit Street, it may not be connected but I know that at one time (1881 census) it was in Elliot hands.


Re Alport Farm. The farm was in the possession of James Elliott from 1851 and passed to his son John Reece Elliott who it is reported lost the farm due to his allegiance to the occasional tipple

[quote author=Keith Bateman. If anyone wants any details of headstones etc in the Whitchurch,  North Shropshire,

I contacted the site you gave and applied to join. As the whole proceedure may take some time, I will take up your offer. I am researching Judge Alexander Graham (1861-1942), b. Dundalk, County Louth, Ireland, ed. Shrewsbury Coll. and Cauis Coll. Cambridge. M. 1902, Mary Adeline Cock, as his second wife, called to the Bar, 1887 Dogpole Chambers, Shrewsbury and had issue, Sir John Patrick Graham. Alexander Graham m. his first wife, 1892 and had issue, Edmund Alexander Graham, b. June 1894 at 2 Quarry Place, Atcham. It is the first marriage that I would like to resolve.

Yours etc.,  Newgent.

Dear Michael,
Thankyou for including me in the reply to Keith. As you can see by my last post to Keith (no. 83), at the moment, I am researching two names; ie., Graham and Cock. If you come upon these two surnames I would be delighted to hear from you. Oddly enough I am researching a public house in East Retford, the Galway Arms.

Yours,   Newgent.
