I believe that Ferdinand Beacroft was MD of Shipley Colliery at its "closure" in 1946, ie Nationalisation. He had married Elizabeth Fletcher of Head House in 1916. I've managed to trace both families in censuses back from 1901 to 1861. |

replied on: 2/18/2007 9:32:39 PM I have a James Fletcher born circa 1894 in my tree who married Florence Sims if that is at all helpful. Sorry it's a bit vague, but he married in! |

replied on: 2/19/2007 12:29:26 AM Welcome to the site, Woodgates. Not to do with the Fletcher family , but it may be of interest, present day (unless its changed in the last 5 years) the Woodwards work Headhouse Farm at Mapperley Brook.

replied on: 2/20/2007 10:31:16 PM Yes Suzard These are the ones (Becroft etc). I think Hannah Beecroft married a William Smith of Cotmanhay some time before 1871 as they are both shown living with "Josh" at Mount Pleasant, Cotmanhay. Haven't been able to find a marriage date yet. Joseph and Sarah's birth certs show no father. Thanks for your contribution though. |
