Grandad Lack
Hello again. I don`t know when Grandad Lack was born. I have no contakt with any of the Lack family because my mother remarried after my father Eric Lack died. Let me know if you find a link between the Lacks Anna Stearn Posted: 12/08/2008 12:07 by Anna Stearn |

The Lacks
My great great grandfather was born in Willingham, his name was Joseph Lack. Many of my family are buried in the churchyard. I have not been to Willingham yet but hope to do so in the near future. I feel that I know the place so well even though I haven't been there. I am researching my family history, and found that they come from Willingham. Quite a lot of my family were carpenters. It was nice to see someone relating to Lack. Maybe not a good memory but hopefuly it will be a good one when I go to Willingham. Pat Mason Last edited: 21/04/2008 10:02 by Patricia Mason |

Grandad Lack Of The Black Bull
I remember staying in the Black Bull, run by my grandad, grandad Lack. In the back garden was a huge willow tree and in one of the outhouses all the metal tops from the beer bottles were discarded. I used to sit in the tap room and look though the net curtains smelling strongly of cigarette smoke at the main road. He gave me fizzy cherryade. Auntie Peggy and Uncle George lived with grandad and took over when he died. Up the road was the fruit orchard where we picked apples and plums. I was very young but remember it well. How wonderful to find this photograph. Last edited: 19/02/2008 15:26 by Anna Stearn |
