Shropshire memories
Sunday Teas
When I was a young girl in the early 1950s I remember going with my parents halfway up the Wrekin and we would stop at this cottage and have Sunday tea, being scones and a pot of tea, then we would continue on foot to the top of the Wrekin, the summers seem so hot then.
Wheat Leasows, Wellington, County of Salop
My grandmother was named Violet May Purcell, born in May 1891. She emigrated to Canada as a young adult. Her father was Frederick Purcell, a wire cleaner; her mother was Ellen Purcell (nee Higginson). If anyone has additional information, please advise. Thank you.
Atcham Schoolhouse
I only knew Atcham as the place where my grandfather's family lived in 1901. My grandfather lived there with the rest of his family in the Atcham Schoolhouse because his dad was the local School Master at that time. I recently crossed the globe and visited that same house in the beautiful setting that is Atcham. In doing that I finally feel I've in some way touched a part of my grandfather's life even if he was only a little boy there at the time.

Hanmer Family
My grandmother, Sarah Jane Hanmer, was born a twin in Eyton in 1910, her mother, also Sarah Jane Hanmer, is buried there. They were a large family, and my great-grandfather was a farmer. All the children went to school there. Their house is still standing, near the church in Eyton. My grandmother was a chamber maid in a big house near there, possibly Wellington. My great-grand mother was married twice, after the death of her first husband who had the surname Lewis.
