My Grandfather
I was told by my mother that my grandparents moved to Tattershall in 1912 from Buckinghamshire so my grandfather could find work helping to restore the castle he was a carpenter. His name was William Bywater, known as Roger, they lived in the village for many years.

Ancestors from Coningsby
I've been researching my family history and have found that an ancestor of mine known as James Faunt used to live at a place called Packet Beerhouse, in fact he is in the 1891 census as being the "beerhouse keeper". He lived there with his wife Sarah. Is the building still in existence today? Are there any Faunts still living in the Coningsby area? I've been trying to find out more, but so far no success. I am a regular visitor to Grimsby so may nip over to Coningsby and try at the roots...so to speak.

Langrick
I was born at Church Corner, Langrick, in one of a pair of tied cottages. My godparents lived next door. My mother was Joyce May Cargill, and she was living with her parents, Eva Kate and George Herbert White at the time of my birth. my father was Joseph William Cargill. He was in the Army, fighting in the second World War.
My paternal grandparents were Mary and John Perry Cargll. They lived a short distance away, along Armtree Road. There is not a trace of the little cottae where they brought up their large family.
The house where I was born on March 21st 1943 has now been converted into single dwelling. the old apple tree ...read more here

Extracts From Woodhall Spa & Lincolnshire books
This is the main shopping street through Woodhall Spa. There was a railway crossing across the street in the distance. W H Smith (right) has gone, and since 1994 the shop has been owned by an antiques dealer. The van (left) is coming out of Stanhope Avenue. Woodhall Spa is really a holiday town in the middle of Lincolnshire for people dedicated to golf.

The recent news is that spa water has been found about six hundred feet down, and the Golf Hotel is about to resurrect the spa baths sometime during 2005. The building was formerly the Clevedon House Preparatory School and a boarding school for boys. Almost next door to this attractive hotel is the English National Golf Centre. The Woodhall Spa golf course has been voted the best inland course in England.

HRH Princess Marie Louise opened the park in April 1935 to commemorate the Silver Jubilee of King George V - the plaque stating this information is on the side of the cafeteria. The pool is a heated outdoor pool; the fountain has gone. There is a large caravan site here, and a children’s play area. The park caters for cricket, tennis, and bowls, and it has a putting green. This is a marvellous asset for the community.
