Welcome Gresham family members. This space is for us to share information about our heritage & current news. Please post photos, stories, news, in fact anything that might be of interest to other members of our family.
My father was Edward Roden Gresham Bridgwater born in 1898 and died in 1998 (note the correct spelling of Bridgwater) He was the only child of Edward Henry Bridgwater (died 1919) and Mary Gresham who were married in 1890. My name is Mary Jean Gresham Curtis (nee Bridgwater) and I now live in Canada. I have a brother Edward William Ross Bridgwater living in Wales and a sister Florence Margaret Alison Coles living in Canada. Your site has been very useful as we were trying to find out Mary's date of birth and death. We understand that my father was 12 years old when she died which would make her death about 1910 is there anyone who can confirm this.
I note that James Neville Gresham married Vera Moon, probably in the 1920s. Vera Moon was the daughter of Billy Moon who was footballer who played for England. My interest is mainly in the Moon family and I would be interested in contacting any descendants of James and Vera Gresham.
HI, Do you know of an Ann Gresham who married a William Brooks? They had one son, Alfred Brooks b. March 10, 1801, he died in 1878.
I have no dates for Ann Gresham, but would assume she was born c. 1780
Alfred Brooks bought the wine merchants now known as Justerini & Brooks. He was very wealthy.
Alfred Brooks married Jane Nott and had one daughter Jane, b. 1833. They lived in London, UK
Jane then married as his second wife, William Henry Cole. He came from Suffolk. They lived at West Woodhay House, West Woodhay, Berks. I have a picture of Jane Cole.
If you need any more information I can give it to you.
Regards,
Sylvia (Jane & W H Coles great great grand daughter)
Hello - the elder sister of my ggf was Sarah Hipgrave (1841-1909) who married Robert Brayley Gresham (1832-1915) in 1864. I’ve got a bit of info on them from the Nottinghamshire History website and all the other usual sources but would love a photo of her if anyone has one. You can get me at mark(dot)hipgrave(at)icloud(dot)com. Thks in advance

Hi, could you correct the spelling of my Grandmother's name:
604. iii. MADDIE SCOTT, b. 1913, Holbeck Leeds.
she was called Maidie not Maddie.
