Apparently this gentlemen was my great, great grandfather. My nan was Amy English, who married a Charman.
William English was the father of Hubert and Lewis. Hubert English was my grandfather.
I have a some photographs and information about the family. I think the brass lights from this vehicle may be in our loft!
Also I am sure we were related to the Gigney family, who I think were ironmongers in Wickford?
