Hi! This might sound a bit funny, but I bought a huge wooden box of old art postcards from a charity shop last weekend, and - out of curiosity - I've been tracing the original owner, Cora Elizabeth Grice (nee Evans) married to a Leon & mother to Cynthia & Leonora. The collection includes cards sent by both daughters and a granddaughter - Anna. The box may have been given away intentionally, but I'd love to hear from you if you're interested in it - and I'd love to know how the box ended up in Penarth (South Wales, nr Cardiff).
All the best and I hope that you see this one day!
You can reach me at
holly.hartzenberg@gmail.comWe have Cottrells from Staffs,
My partners mother's mother is Leonora Cottrell (nee Grice) and she married Frank Bryan Cottrell, who was born in Bourneville 05 March 1926. I think we have generations further back than that, but they're on my home PC and I'm at work! Will post them later.
