Brian White   10 #13 Posted July 17, 2015 Hi Patricia - What you write is quite a surprise. I had no idea my Aunt Phoebe had so many children. I only knew two of them at all. Jim and Annice who were both close to my age. My cousin Dave says that Jim died recently. Don't think he knows anything about the others or who is still living Best Regards Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Moirahyde   10 #16 Posted August 30, 2017 Ian,  There is a Harry Eccles on the 1939 register. His date of birth is 8 Dec 1879 and he is a 'Proprietor of Agricultural Machinery & Steam Rollers and Engin.  Might the above be your Harry, or is the date of birth wrong?

broncolives   10 #18 Posted September 8, 2017 My grandmother was Eliza Eccles and although they lived in Lock St which isnt too far from Cuthbert bank I havent seen any attachement to your family tree. Her father was William and her mother Savinah. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

brades   10 #22 Posted March 25, 2018 Hi Keeley, some time ago you posted you were looking for Spye/Eccles families in Sheffield. Do you possibly have, somwhere in your family, a Harry Eccles who worked as an engineer from the 190s onwards, hope you can help me as I am researching on behalf of my wife.  Thanks Ian Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
