Upcott family of Cullompton, Devon

[PaulJC]

Hello All,

I am looking for information on the Upcott family from Cullompton, Devon with particular reference to the following:

- Their textile business in the 18th and 19th Centuries
- The burial details of Charles John Upcott who died in 1898
- Any photographic references to the family and their business

Thanks,
Paul

You might want to amend the spelling error in the header, although that spelling might at least make people look at the post.

Thanks Sandra,

Any idea where he was buried? I am having difficulty tracing most of the Upcott family burials. Just a few appear in Cullompton Cemetery.
