William Henry Broxholme at the Lowestoft docks (1950) - (25th May 2010)

Julia Parker is looking for information on a William Henry Broxholme who worked at the Lowestoft docks in the 1950s's. The only possibility that I could see in the family trees would be my own father's uncle, William (Harry) born in 1928. he is in the William Brocksum family tree and passed away some years ago. I have no contacts in that part of the family so know nothing more about him, if anyone can help Julia then please get in contact and I will pass the information on.

Derby Broxholme's - (7th May 2008)

Jayne Broxholme of Derby is looking for family, little is known of her father Douglas Anthony Broxholme. I have asked Jayne for any additional information (e.g. year and place of his birth etc) which will be posted when it becomes available. Our first response was from Karen who's grandmother Clara Ann Broxholme was born in Derby in 1852. Is she related to Douglas Anthony?, There is only one other Clara in our family trees so this is a new lead, it would be nice to connect them if we can. Clara's father was John Broxholme who married Caroline Parberry in 1849. I have started a new twig for this fragment and wonder if John might be the Master Butcher that we see in Eric Smith's tree.
