Notes for Ellen SOTHAM

The picture is said to have been taken at the wedding of her grand-daughter Eleanor Wenham and Bryan Isaac in about 1927/8 when Ellen was about 83 but she really doesn't look that old!

Lived at Padstow, Beech Avenue, Sanderstead, Surrey UK, in her retiring years. [105]

Notes for Thomas ADKINS

1881 Census - Living in New Road, Woodleigh, Kings Norton, Staffordshire UK. Noted on son's wedding certificate as a 'Gentleman'.

Travelled from Widney, Knowle, Warwickshire UK, to Birmingham every day by train for business.

Thomas wrote the letter to his mother. Clearly a child writing this, but what excellent writing! Aunt Lucy is his mother's sister, Lucy MALINS. Florence is Thomas's sister, Florence Ann ADKINS.
