Good morning all, I was just wondering if anyone remembers my Nan and her husband who bought and ran the greengrocers in the early 70’s, I think they called it Sutherlands. Also does anyone remember the Meades family who lived in Wroxton Road probably from 1912 to the late 40’s?

I’ve had another look and I think the children attended in the early to mid 1890’s. One child was baptised in the church in 1881 too

My Great Great Grandparents lived at number 58 Charles Edward Road from at least 1911 to 1924 when they both died. Their names were John and Mary Ann Meades. Has anyone got any information or hopefully photos of the road during that era as I would be very interested to find out more about their...

Good evening, I’m new to this forum so apologies for adding to an old post but St Margaret’s school, Olton is of interest to my family research. My ancestors attended the school in the 1890’s, they were the Meades family and if anyone has any photos of the school or any information for me I’d...
