The Emmet Family @ Moreton Paddox

A Memory of Moreton Paddox.

I don't have a memory as such. My grandfather was deputy head gardener at Moreton Paddox until he retired in the late 1950s. He lived in North Lodge at Moreton Morell. I believe the Paddox were owned then by a family called Emmet. The head of the family was Robert and his son James (Jim) was my father's friend. My father and Jim would go to the top of the Paddox and watch the bombing of the midlands during WW2. Sadly, after the Emmets left, the place fell into disrepair and literally fell down. I believe they left to go to Ireland. My appeal is for anybody who can fill in the blanks in my information to contact me please. I would particularly like to hear from anybody connected to the Emmet family. Thank you
