Had a few problems with the link - so just in case I have copied the note here

[I WOULD be very pleased to hear from anyone who knew my grandfather Henry Isaac Jones or my grandmother Annie Elizabeth who lived and died in Lydbrook.

My mother Dorothy Florence Jones is 94 years old and lost both her parents when she was about seven years old. She was eventually adopted by an aunt and uncle in Yorkshire when she was 16 years old but before that was raised by ‘Granny’ Mary Anne Gunter in Lydbrook. Granny Gunter was really my mothers aunt, sister to her father. There were also two other brothers, James and John.

Mum says she was born at a place called Cop meadow but cannot remember much about the place and longs to hear more about her family, any little titbits will fill in some blanks for her and for her children.

Can you help? Do you have any old photographs that we could copy and make an album for her. We may have left all this a bit late, but you know the old saying better late than never and it would make an old lady very happy to be reunited with her family even if only in photographs.

Please help if you can, any scrap of information is better than nothing. My name is Irene Toddington and I live at Tregantle House, Tregatillian, Cornwall TR9 6JQ. . Thank you for any information.
