Notes for John Francis RATCLIFF

One of the first to own a car in Solihull, Warwickshire UK - a Hupmobile, American chassis with UK body, must have been in or after 1909.

Notes for Catherine Esther SWINSON

Partner with Francis Gerald RATCLIFF in iron & steel business. Known not to like girls! A trait shared by her step grand-daughter, Katharine.

Her brothers attended the same school but at a different street location in Bedford.
