Bacon Family

My family lived in Hawkedon from about the mid-1880s and came from Kirtling, Cambs.  I know that they ran the Queen's Head and I think my grandmother helped to teach at the local school. My mother's family (Bacon) were all born at Langley Farm.   I don't think it is called that now and wonder if anyone has any memories of this family.  I did visit the house some years ago with a cousin and my mother, and the family were very kind and allowed us to look around, which gave my mother so much pleasure.  If the same family still live there I would like to thank them.  Sadly my mother passed away in 2000 at the age of 84 but I cannot forget the look on her face when she was invited into the house in which she was born!
