Edward Henry Adey - St Braivels - 1908 to 1935 (General)

by john.adey, Monday, November 17, 2008, 23:00 (5921 days ago)

I am searching for any information regarding my grandfather Edward Henry Adey and my father Edward Anthony Adey.

I know that Edward Henry Adey moved from Great Berkhamstead to St Braivels at some time between 1908 and 1915. Edward Anthony Adey was born at Fernbank Cottage, Hewelsfield Road, St. Braivels on 27th June 1915. Does Fernbank Cottage still exist? Would anyone happen to have any old photographs of the cottage? Was Edward Anthony Adey christened at St Braivels church?

Some years later Edward Anthony Adey attended Monmouth School and in about 1935 Edward Henry Adey moved to Deal in Kent.

I would appreciate hearing from anyone who can answer my questions or give me any information regarding Edward Henry's time in St Braivels.

Anyone with an interest in Adey family history with Gloucestershire roots may like to visit www.adey.org.uk

Regards & thanks
John Adey

Thank you very much, it is appreciated.

Actually I do have his birth record but I have been unable to find a baptism or christening and I was unable to locate the cottage.
