Mathers of Kniveton

My grandad was Thomas Richard Mather (b 1890) he married Emma Ann Twigg (b 1890 Parwich).  His mother kept the Post Office at Kniveton and was a dressmaker, Esther Mather.  His brothers were blacksmiths and wheelwrights.  His cottage was next to the Red Lion in James Lane.  I have several photos I can share.

RE: RE: Mathers of Kniveton

I am trying to see if connected my great-grandfather was Samuel Mather who was a blacksmith in Kniveton. My grandma is Elsie Mather who married a Richard Walker. Does anyone have any information or maybe pictures?

Looking at another website I'm sure I must be related, I remember as a child visiting Ray Mather and Dora, they used to have a bull if I've remembered right.
