I don't think you're going to get far asking people on here. You're hardly going to get a complete or official picture. If you are aiming to study your family history you should maybe head for Sheffield Archives on Shoreham Street and check out the census returns. You may even find that your family is not entirely from Sheffield? tosh13 16-03-2006, 15:24 There used to be some Foxes who lived at Heeley,Dave Fox ran the Shakespeare Pub with his wife,I cannot recall her name though it might be Margrate or Maureen. mslotus 16-03-2006, 17:57 A friend of mine is currently researching her family history and uses the archives.
