RE: RE: Shop Names

I am trying to find a photo of my grandad - Reuben John HENMAN, as I have never seen him.  He was born at Lidlington in Ampthill in 1872 and had 2 sisters.  He moved to Derby where he married his first wife, Minnie Burrell. Later in life he moved to Stratton on the Fosse where he was widowed and remarried.

I would be extremely grateful for any information on him - a photo would be fantastic, but a physical description and any memories of his character would be great.
