Shared Memories of Sturry

  William Amos
In the 1851 census William Amos, believed to have been my Great Grandfather, lived with his wife Caroline and children in No.10 High Street, Sturry. He is recorded as being a schoolteacher. In the 1861 census he is recorded as being a Shipping Agent living in Whitsable, address unclear in the register. A rather strange change of occupation.

I would be very interested in learning more about him and his family and which school, possibly Kings, which is close by, that he taught at.

  Year: 1944 The day the pub got blown up
Does any one remember the local pub in Sturry, that got blown up in ww2, my dad saved a little boy, but through shock, the young lad later died. Does any one remember the ODELL family who lived in ROOKERY NOCK?
   Would love to hear from any one who knew them, my sister was in the Land army, any one who can remember her, her name was HAZEL ODELL, she also worked in the backers in Sturry.
