From brief one-liners explaining a little bit more about the image depicted, to great, in-depth accounts of a childhood when things were rather different than today (and everything inbetween!). We've had many contributors recognising themselves or loved ones in our photographs.

Looking for info on a local man. Alan Johns?? Alan Webb?? Born 1940-1947 in the Holsworthy area. Went to live in Pyworthy shortly after his birth. We think he was an only child. We know the Johns parents have both passed on within recent years. My family did have contact with a Jack Smith who knew of this man. ANY info regarding this man would be extremely appreciated as he is believed to be related to us. Thanks for reading this and fingers crossed someone can help. Thankyou
My family originally came from Moor Cottage, Pyworthy, they lived there for at least 100 years. I would love to know some history on the cottage. My familly were the Parnells, they had a double wedding in the church, Thomas and John were married to two local girls, the Sleemans, Jane. If antone has any info on my ancestors I would love to hear from you, God bless. Margaret Parnell
