HI

Thank you for your quick response.

I have left his family tree at home so would need to check over the weekend and reply. I have found Frank and Edith Davies at Railway Terrace on the 1911 census (this is another part of his family).

At the moment I am trying to find where Railway Terrace would have been, as it no longer exists. We have written to the local paper this week to see if anyone can remember it, i know it was still there in 1934.  It doesn't appear to be located on the ordance survey maps.

I will also ask my friend to join this site so that he can possibly give you some of the answers directly.

Thank you again

Thank you for your prompt response. It is good to hear from another member of the Williams family. I did hear from the daughter of Harry Dodd Williams about 4 years ago, she was living in Australia however, I have not been in email contact for sometime.

I met your Grandmother once when I was a child at Oscar's funeral. If my memory is correct my mother Marion called your Grandmother Aunt Mimi. I have some family photos and am happy to send them to you. I have a photograph of Oscar as a young man and a beautiful pencil sketch of Emily our Great Grandmother drawn by Uncle Ted Tilston who emigrated to Canada and had a successful career as an architect. I was aware the Aunt Gertrude lived in Oyster Bay, Long Island and married at the age of 69. The family story was that she had been a Nanny to the children of the Rockerfellas. Can you verify this?

I am a a Deputy Headteacher in a large London comp, my wife Pat is a teacher of science. My mother Marion was a successful primary school headteacher so the teacher gene is certainly in the gene pool!
Both my daughter are at University one in Sheffield and the other in Manchester.

I have many photos of Emily, Marion and my cousins if you would like me to send photos please send your address.

I look forward to hearing from you and receiving the family tree.

Best wishes
Stuart
