March 2025 Newsletter (v2)

My mother did not know that her paternal GF was born in Germany.

I assume that this fact was "brushed under the carpet" due to both world wars.

He did naturalise as a British subject.

...until I began researching our family history this fact was never known in our branch of the family.


Dismantling one of my 'brick walls'

I think that this building was a nursing home in 1993 as our daughter worked there as a care assistant before starting her nurse training. We also had neighbours who moved into the home, though I am not sure of the date.

I hope this helps,

There is an entry in the London Gazette reporting the death of a Reginald Edwards in 1974 referencing "Inglenook Convalescent home, 61 South Road, Weston-super-Mare" if that helps

The clincher I believe is that Harold George SMITH's widow and daughter were living in Weston-super-Mare in 1921
