hi adele
it's cyrilla your cousin here (aunty marg's daughter)she is visiting at the moment and we stumbled onto this site.
to answer your question alfred was born in bristol july 27th 1901,his father, a carpenter, died in his mid 20's, his mother brought him and his brother,reginald, to the forest to housekeep for someone in ruardean.
He was a foreman for a firm putting in mains water in dorset not sure when but before living at the royal oak (the bag o nails).
He was landlord of the unicorn (and we think still working for water firm) in coleford when he married winifred lane (b.19/09/1911)
2 children born there-sam and tony.
He left water firm and unicorn pub to move to the pludds to work in the coal mine and run, with winifred, the royal oak. 2 more children born-margaret and graham (jo),your dad.
