One in particular, I am hoping, will provide a link to my lost great grandfather, John Quarrel Chaplin. I have found a John Chaplin on the WW1 Pension Records living and dying in Grantham after the war had ended. His next of kin was Alfred Chaplin living at Gregory Boulevard Nottingham. Both Johns were born in Bermondsey, as were both Alfreds. Both Johns had a brother Alfred, who lived in Nottingham. Both Johns were born within a couple of years. So far so good, but I want to find more evidence, thus ordering the will. I am hoping there might be a few more names I recognise which might bring it all together.
Also ordered copies of papers from the University concerning Francis Cheetham of Flintham Nottinghamshire, my 4xgreat grandfather. These will show me which land in Flintham they owned and later sold to the Thoroton Hildyard family who lived at Flintham Hall.
