Wiltshire memories
Cullys Farm
My grandfather farmed Cullys Farm in the early decades of the last century and I believe so did his father and grandfather. My grandfather had 7 children and took in my great-uncle's children when their father Willam Fishlock from Avebury was killed in the First World War. I have somewhere photos of the family at Cullys which I will dig out, if anyone wants to see them.
Granny Marsh
I was born in Marlborough and my grandmother ran a small grocery store at Clench Common. She was married to John Marsh until he died many years before I was born. I believe he was a war hero in the First World War. Any information on the Marsh family would be wonderful. My mother was Lillie F. W. Marsh.
My Great-Grandfather And Mother Isaacs
In 1939-40 I was evacuated to Lockeridge to live with my great-aunt Mrs Haynes, who I think lived in one of the thatched cottages in the photo of the Dene. She was, I think, housekeeper at the big house in Lockeridge. We lived in the cottage with my great-grandfather and great-grandmother who died in 1940 and 1949 respectively and are burried in St Michael's and All Angels' churchyard in West Overton.
Lockeridge School
Whilst researching my family history I have found several photographs of classes at Lockeridge School 1915. It could be my mother Dorothy Mortimore with standard 11.
Family Connections to The Limes.
The house in the photograph is The Limes and has a family connection. A great uncle on my mother's side purchased this property. He was Alfred William Reynolds, who was an innkeeper in the White Hart pub opposite the house. He combined publican and greyhound coursing trainer for a period in the early 1900s. He is said to have purchased The Limes after training the winner of the Waterloo Cup in 1908. A photograph taken around this time shows outbuildings to the left and a thatched cottage.
The property is still in existence today and seems little changed. The White Hart is also still a pub and also little changed on the outside. Alfred's son, Alfred Louis Reynolds also trained greyhounds in coursing particularly in Odiham, Hants. After his wife's death Alfred William married again and one of his two sons by this marriage, Leslie Reynolds, trained track greyhounds mostly at Wembley Stadium. His greyhounds won the greyhound St Leger... Read more
