What a wonderful bunch you all are.  You can see that I have not looked back at this site for so long it was hard to find my password.  My G. Grandfather was Edgar Glover, My Grandmother was Elsie and I had a great aunt Kitty.  Elsie is buried at Ruscombe Church near Twyford Berks.  Attached is a Photo of Edgar trout fishing.

Thanks Erika, at over a year old I thought that post was dead.  I wish you good research. As I live in NZ if you need some research over here sing out. Kind regards

Has anyone got any info or photos of inside or out of the Glover Bros woolen mill.  The site is now a chemical plant belonging to Rhodia.  In their History they say the site was that of the Mill.  I'm picking that the Bros. were the sons of Joseph and Harriet.  My Gr Grandfather Edgar was one of the sons, Leonard is listed as a mill manager, Joseph the father as employing 57 people.  Edgar married Achsah Brook.  The Brooks were also in textiles.  I'm attaching a location map from Rhodia, & a photo from inside the mill from the history of Leeds.

Any connections greatfully received. :)
