Whitwell

Thanks for looking Pippa

Nothing quite seems to fit does it?:(


I think its very unlikely to be Creswell, as the family are living in Whitwell which is only about 2 miles from Creswell.

Hello Barbara,

Thank you for the link Raphael, I have quite an extensive family from the area, and currently live in Whitwell. Those photographs may come in useful. Do let me know if I can get anything for you locally


Jools - thank you for both the suggestion for Mary Ann Booth, (although I see you have some doubts now), and also for the confirmation that Witton Moor exists. I really could not find any reference to it anywhere:o
