Thanks Daren peter cross I would contact a man called David S.D. Jones he is involved with the National Game Keepers organisation, you can get hold of him through them . He is a bit of an authority on the history of game keepers and their families. He writes articles in the sporting press and has even written a book on it . If he can’t help you no one can !!!
