Fears in Lydbrook (General)

Hi,

I think we may have a few leads for you on some members of this family. Most of it is still in my husbands' head and it will take time to write it down for you to check out. Briefly the bakery in Lydbrook is well remembered. There were two brothers Harvey and Pete(r) but sadly both have now died, and a daughter who married someone called Cole. Harvey was a baker, delivering bread on Leys Hill (near Bishopswood, Herefordshire) and he had a shop/cafe in Ross on Wye. He also owned the "Top Spot" which was a nightclub in Ross from the 1960's. Pete also was in business in Ross and I think he had connections with motor sport (rallying). He has only recently died. I will find out more for you but I will need a little time to get my husband John and one of our neighbours together to get the detail. Also, there was a girl called Elizabeth Harvey from Lydbrook in my year at school who may be connected with this family. Hope this helps for now.

May
