"Complete" Caravan Painting/ Barras
« on: Tuesday 03 March 09 13:27 UTC (UK) »
I believe that one of my fathers uncles or cousins painted Traveling peoples caravans in the Bishop Auckland area of County Durham. The family name is Barras (they came from Bd Castle) forename possibly Thomas or Frederick.

Does anyone have any information about this
