Old photos are so interesting,I was only given the photo I put on recently and even though it wasn't perfect I loved it.Thank you Wendy I have just voted,Jean what a lovley thread.

This is a photo of my Grandparents restored by kind members of the site,It means a lot me as I never knew them. They married in 1915,so I would think it was taken around then.

Steralised milk was popular before we all had fridges,It does last longer did they use it in cereals? My mom woudn't have anything else suppose it's what you get used to, can't stand that long life milk.

That would be near where he lived, I don't know the time he worked for them I was just told it was a horse and cart.

I thought maybe my spelling was wrong, do you know how long they were operating there.

I have been told that one of my relatives worked for Gospels Hauliers,I hope thats the correct spelling he was living in the Haymills/Yardley area, he carried out his work on a horse and cart,has anyone heard of Gospels,or where they were located.

Great photo's,I remember some people had a pully type clothes dryer on the ceiling. No wonder the woman had mottled legs,they are so close to the fire.

I keep looking over the same ground,I have looked and I think your right about Horace being Albert Horace,I don't know why Ellen May or her husband can't be found,I have spend ages looking, knowing they have to be there thinking I may have missed them,they will come to light sooner or later.

I have only just only recently come across Ellen in my family search,recently found her son's grave at Witton I didn't know how many children she had so she at least had four,I would like to know if Ellen is also buried at Witton but to find out I need to find her date of death,I have found the...

Yes I don't know how any children she had,the only one I am sure of is the one that died in 1953 age 21 his name Horace Albert buried at Witton.

I think he must have been alive, on there sons grave it says son of Albert and May Rattcliffe, would they have said deseased if either had died.

I know she was still alive in 1953 because she lost her son that year,she married in Kings Norton to Albert Ratcliffe.

Sorry forgot to include area,Yardley Birmingham

I have been looking for the death of Ellen May Ratcliffe nee Garfield,believe she was called May by the family I have found her birth in 1897 and her wedding in 1917, but the death I just cannot find.
