Reasons for leaving? (General)
My gg grandfather Beriah Meek and his wife Jane took their family from the FoD to South Wales, then to the Staffordshire potteries and then onto the North East coalfields in Gateshead eventually living in the Teams area. Beriah and his sons worked in the mines and along the way he and Jane brought up brought up 12 children only to lose two sons in WW1 We don't know how good we have it now!
regards
Nigel
