Family Tree
My father's family came to Middlesborough at the time of the Pig-Iron. He came from Worcestershire, around Lye. His name was Robert Jepson. He had 4 sons and 1 daughter. Charles Jepson, being my great grandfather. Fred Jepson, his son being my grandfather. Fred and his brother Frank were professional footballers for Spennymoor United Football Club, and received a medal medallion which hangs on a necklace. I still have it. It declares that they won it in 1917. Frank ran a newsagent in Middlesborough. His brother Harold drove trams for the town of Middlesborough, and then Reginald, who died in 1941, and a daughter Gladys Jepson. It is not known whom Gladys married, and it would be interesting to know. So, if there is anyone out there whose mom was Gladys, please contact me.
Fred Jepson had 2 children - Constance and Dennis, my aunt and my father. It would be great to hear from anyone that remembers him.
