Hi

Albert Hiram Stokes was my Grandad. He was one of nine children to John and Susan Stokes (nee Brain). He was brought up, however, in Batley, West Yorkshire by an auntie and uncle (Dennis and Amelia Herberts). He married my Grandma, Annie Cape, and had three children - Evelyn, Phyllis and Dennis Herbert Stokes (my Dad). Dennis had four children, David, Wendy and Pamela (twins) and myself (Stephen). Unfortunately, I was only five when my Grandad died, so my memories of Albert are very sparse. Strangely, my son Tim now lives in Cheltenham, Near Gloucester and he has three sons of his own. My part of the "Stokes" family tree, therefore, has moved from Gloucester to West Yorkshire and back again during the course of the last hundred plus years. I will be happy to provide further information upon request.
