Harold Wragg 1899-1967
« on: Saturday 22 November 14 11:03 GMT (UK) »
My Father was discharged from the army in 1925. In his documents he used the following address for contact purposes. He married my mother in 1932 Can anyone shed some light on activities during that 7 year period?

D Isaccs
Mere Hall
Knutsford

Who was D Isaccs and what could my father be doing in Mere Hall Knutsford.
Anybody up for a challenge?
Wragg and Duckett

  Googling     Mere Hall,   I  found this       http://www.merehallfarmbusinesscentre.co.uk/   so   maybe    he was working on the  farm  , and D Isaacs was  the   farmer ?
