Hi Arthur

I'm not sure, but are these any relation to the Ditchfield's who used to run the newsagents on Lowedges when it was first built, probably from about 1954 or 55 when it was just a wooden hut until the proper row of shops were built. They ran the shop for many years and my sister worked there for about six years from 1966.

Hi,
I believe Henry was my 3x Great Grandfather, though at the moment I'm not 100% certain as I have still got to verify it.

There are transcribed baptism and burial records for some members of this family at Sheffield Indexers (http://www.sheffieldindexers.com)
