Thank you both . With your help I was able to print several clippings in about ten minutes after previously spending a whole evening getting nowhere

Hi! John Thank you, I'll give that a go when I get home this evening

Please can anyone help a numpty whose computer knowledge is very basic. I have some newspaper clippings that have been downloaded using Firefox and am trying to print these clippings at their original size but no matter what I try an extremely large version of the clipping emerges from the printer

Thank you. That confirms that my paternal grandparents are in the same grave and saves me purchasing another burial record as my Grandmother passed away first I just need to find the two relatives in Staffordshire now

Please can anyone tell me the meaning of the abbreviations for grave types in burial records ie: BY, EG and Reop E ?

I'm fairly sure that this workshop was a one man business

Hi! I'm wondering whether anybody can remember a vehicle repair shop in an old building in Inge Street opposite the Fox pub during the 1980's

Great minds ....I messaged a relative who collects old radios and got the same response ie: I can't reply directly, but you could tell them there is an Eddystone user group at https://groups.io/g/EddystoneUserGroup - They are there almost soley for this type of support

Very interesting Jan. I think that you are right about the cottages and barn being sold much earlier

I don't think so as Graham's memoirs tell us that his father installed, electricity, running water and sewerage after purchasing Old Barn

I'll have another look but i don't think so he was only about twelve when he moved into Old Barn, after working for a while he went into the army and became a Tankie. He followed his parents out to NZ in 1947 after marrying my aunt
