Memories of Herefordshire
Mr Terry Burns.
I am attempting to contact the family of the late Terry Burns, who I believe lived in Shucknall Hall up to his death in 2001. If anyone knows the whereabouts of his wife Susan Burns (Nee Wilcox) and would pass this message on to her,I would be most grateful. Thank You
Bill Hayman.

Graves Family 1700s
My ancesters come from Ocle Pychard. It's very difficult to get any information on them because we are relying on Parish/Bishops' transcripts and I live in West Sussex. I am not sure if Morgan Graves who married Margaret Walwyn is related to me but he was given Ocle Court as a dower from his father in law and I would love to know some more about him or any other Graves in the 1700s and 1800s. Please get in touch if you can help.
Ocle Pychard - Much Cowarne - Bowler Family
Hi, my great-grandparents lived in and around these parts around 1900. They were William and Jessie Bowler and they had a daughter, Florence and a son, Ernest. Florence, my grandmouther married and moved to Hereford. I'd love to know if there are any Bowlers still about.
ROMAN DIG
In about 1957-8 our history teacher at Hereford High School arranged for those that were interested to make a 'dig' in the yard besides the library ( on the left with the arches). We dug down at least 6 feet or more finding Victorian stuff and other older stuff as we went down and finally I found a Roman pot which I managed to break while getting it out of the packed earth. We had been given absolutely no instructions or training as to how this should have been handled. The teacher was a tad cranky about it but as far as I am concerened it was his fault...what does a 14 year old know about these things ? We were lucky not to get killed as there was no supports for the sides of the trench.
Seems Like Yesterday!
I had to pass through here every day on my way to and from Hereford High School. This photo is so familiar it isn't funny !!
I lived in the army camp officer's quarter's at Bradbury Lines where my stepfather was stationed. I had to make the walk no matter what the weather..sometimes getting home completely frozen or soaked !
