My grandparents and their family lived here for many years and I was born in the front bedroom in the middle of the photograph in November 1947. My stay in a castle did not last long, as a few days after my birth we moved to a prefab and lived there until 1960.

Miss Pugh

MY MOTHER LIVED IN A TIED COTTAGE CALLED MOCKLEY MANOR COTTAGE (WHICH SOUNDED GLAMOROUS BUT WAS'NT) FOR A COUPLE CALLED MR AND MRS CREEDY-SMITH I BELIEVE, ANYWAY I USED TO TRY TO GET OUT AND ABOUT AS MUCH AS I COULD AND GO CYCLING ROUND ULLENHALL.
IT WAS HERE THAT I CAME ACROSS MISS PUGH, A LOVELY LADY WHO LIVED WITH HER BROTHER AT THE BOTTOM ON CHURCH LANE AND SHE WAS FOREVER CYCLING AROUND THE VILLAGE LOOKING WONDERFULLY FIT AND HEALTHY.

Getting Older

How times change, reading the memories of Ullenhall relating to Mockley Manor. My mother Mrs Cook was a resident at Mockley Manor which became a nursing home. She was there from 1997 until her death in 2008 at the age of 102. We often wondered what it used to be like when it was a private home.

Mappleborough Green 1841 Census

I am trying to find out geneaology things in my family - Boswells - dating back to the early 1800's and at the time of the 1841 census were living in Mappleborough Green, Studley, with a John Morris. Would there be any information on this from your area, would you know the church etc for instance. Any help would be appreciated.

James Ferris Cooke And Family

Does anyone out there have any information about James Ferris Cooke. He was a horse clipper and I believe worked on a local estate. His wife was Jane Palmer from Preston Bagot and they had a grand daughter Edith who was a teacher in Hockley Heath. I understand they lived in Spring Coppice Lane.

James and Jane were my Gt Gt Grandparents.
