Hello again, John was my eldest brother, the family was, Mom and dad Fred and Vera, John, Jean, Thomas, Peter Sonia and myself Ray. I am the only one left, living in Shropshire.
 
I have over the last couple of years done a lot of work on the family tree, I have yet to come across a relative known to have moved to Coventry though there are a lot names that I have lost track of. Also , my family seem to have originated in Nuneaton since around 1870. There were several Drakeley families in Nuneaton at that time and it is not that far a move to Coventry.
