My great, great grandfather Wiliam Udall in his later life was Butler to a number of well known Leicestershire families - so far I have been unable to find which. Here is his obituary from the "Atherstone News" 2nd April 1937:
"LATE MR. WM. UDALL.
Death of Well Known Atherstone Man.
The funeral took place at Atherstone on Wednesday, of Mr. William Udall aged 77, of Coleshill Street Atherstone, who died on Saturday
Mr. Udall was a well known Atherstone figure and he had been ill for some time. Before coming to Atherstone he was a butler to one or two well known Leicestershire county families. Until illness and his age prevented him he helped at most of the large local functions including the Hunt Balls and the Atherstone Flower Show. His two sons, one of whom was at Atherstone Hall, were killed during the War.
He was grandfather of Syd and Ted Udall, the well known footballers."
If anone can give any idea of the Leicestershire homes in which her served as Butler it would be appreciated.
