Howe family, Wembdon, Bridgwater.
« on: Friday 13 January 17 15:56 GMT (UK) »
I am researching my grandfather's tree and have come across a William George Howe (born 1902) and a Henry Howe (born 1877).  Henry passed away in Drummuir nursing home at Northfield, Bridgwater and his address was Oakfield Dairy of Wembdon.  I believe Henry married my grandfather's cousin, Matilda Callow.  Matilda's brother, Eli, left probate to a William George Howe a company director of Wembdon Hill.  Does anyone know anything of the family or the company please?  Thank you very much
