2 Rugby Road, Lilbourne
This was the first house my husband and I bought together - we got married in it, and had our first daughter there. We stayed until 2002 - a gorgeous cottage, which we sadly outgrew.
Warwickshire memories
My Family
I have traced my family back to Yelvertoft in the mid 1700's. My family name is York and we are descendants of Thomas York who married Elizabeth Perkins in the late 1700's in Yelvertoft.
If you can help me go further back or are related in any way please contact me.

1941
I was born at Bragborough Hall in 1941 when it was used as a maternity home for mothers from London. My mother came from one of the nearby villages. If anyone has any memories of the hall I would love to know.
Cooper Family
John, Jean and Paul Cooper moved to 9 Churchill Road in March 1964. Cost of property (new) £3,400.00. Paul was aged 3 years and 6months. Len and Cis Richardson and Sarah, moved in approx. 6 months to No 11. Sarah was born on the same day as Paul. The White Horse was a real village pub, with music on Saturday night. The landlady played the piano. Miss Burrows was the school Head Teacher and she also taught the Sunday School. The village cricket team played on the field at the rear of Welton Place (now demolished).
Gathering Damsons
I remember going to Welton, with my mother and father, on their motorbike & sidecar, to pick damsons, to make jam, at a Robbins relative that lived in Welton. As far as I have been able to learn, Robbins lived and farmed in Welton since the seventeenth century. I would love to find the house where I went those many years ago.

As Far as I Can Ascertain my Family Originated Here, And I Would Appreciate Any History of Weltons
My name is Amy Welton. I live in WV, USA. My family as far as I can tell came from this place. The name may have been de Whelton originally. My direct ancestor is John Welton who came to this country in the early 1700s. Any information anyone has concerning the history of either the family or the place Welton would be greatly appreciated.
