James Stanley Goss b1896 woodham, buckinghamshire
« on: Wednesday 30 May 18 16:00 BST (UK) »
Hi,
I am currently researching certain information regarding James Stanley Goss who was born in 1896 in Woodham, Bucks. James was a farmer/farm bailiff, but upon looking at family photos and stories, i was informed that James was a mayor of some sort, who was frequently invited to Buckingham palace. I don’t have any further information really other than that it may relate to Milton Keynes or the surrounding areas. James died in 1972 and is buried alongside his wife in Wootton Underwood.

Might be worth searching for his name in newspapers to see if any likely stories pop up  :)
