Does anyone own Walter Adcock?
« on: Tuesday 12 December 17 22:39 GMT (UK) »
I've bought an old book which has a sticker inside the cover showing that it was a prize given to Walter Adcock in Barnsley in 1894.  He would have been a youngster.  It would be great to give the details to one of his descendants.
Godden in East Sussex, mainly Hastings area.
Richards in Lea, Gloucestershire, then London.
Williamson in Leith, Vickers in Nottingham.
Webb in Bildeston and Colchester.
Wesbroom in Kirby le Soken.
Ellington in Harwich.
Park, Palmer, Segar and Peartree in Kersey.

Have you looked for births in Barnsley for him, and if anyone on here is researching his possible family?

There is a Walter (J) Adcock born in 1879 in Great Yarmouth, who is living in Barnsley by 1901.  (Dies 1961 Barnsley)

Is this Walter too old?
