Wow! Just browsing the internet for no reason and wonderful to see a photo of my Great Great Grandfather. He was a shepherd. I have a copy of his death certificate which shows he died on 1st February 1910, a wonderful age for those times. I have visited St. Andrews Church, Great Rollright and his grave is just inside the churchyard.
This was my great great great grandfather in my dads side we have the original picture. Lived to a grand age.
Will visit Burmington when lockdown is over.
I am working on a local history project in Great Rollright, undertaking research on Richard Withers (aka Widdows). I would like to hear from any relations of Richard Withers, who may have any further information about him.
my Great Great Granddad on my mothers side. I have visited his grave and Great Rollright many years ago. have an original photo somewhere. Fascinating ancestor.
