Rugby Clubs in Forest of Dean 1890 to 1908 (General)

My grandfather William Frank Essex certainly used to take the money for the old grandstand seats at Lydney (Regentsholme) around 1950-55, as I was there with him, but I think he also said he had played for Lydney and/or run the touchline there. If so, it must have been between 1903 and 1912, but I've never seen any proof. So if anyone researching Forest clubs 1890-1908 comes across his name I'd be interested. Emailing Lydney about 3 years ago didn't produce anything. I can remember that, of other Forest clubs, Lydney used to play Cinderford and Berry Hill regularly in the more recent years I've just referred to, so conceivably he was involved in such local derbies in those earlier years.
