Another reminder of my father, William Cox, and the second World War. I have posted before that he was in the army and most of his service was spent in India. He was a Quartermaster Sergeant in the Military Police. This is his cap badge which was given to my youngest son Sam by his grandmother.
Over the past 13 years, since I started to research my family history, I have acquired several old photographs of some of my ancestors and their families. My late mother helped me by putting names to faces and telling me what she could remember about them.
The picture above is of my great great grandparents, John and Mary Stacey, and probably their 4 youngest children.
Their youngest son George was born in 1882 so that would date this photograph mid to late 1880s.
I will start my thoughts with John and Mary who are the maternal branch of my family.
