Family History Beginners Board / Alders Paper Mill Staff Photographs
« on: Saturday 05 March 22 18:20 GMT (UK)  »
My Paternal Grandfather was born in Tamworth, and lived in one of the cottages in Alders Yard. His father Vivian Welburn and Grandfather William Hodgson Welburn was a commercial traveller for Alders Paper Mill. I would dearly love to find a staff photo with my Great, and Great Great Grandfather on it.
Another of my great grandfathers brothers George Welburn worked there when the mill caught fire and managed to get out.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, as I would love to see what they looked like.
Many thanks.

Family History Beginners Board / Welburn Family Alders Mill Tamworth
« on: Monday 23 January 12 18:35 GMT (UK)  »
Hi there, I have a photograph of the members of staff at Alders Mill Tamworth. My Great Great Grandfather William Welburn was a leading figure at the head of the mill, which also employed his three sons Vivien (my Great Grandfather)George Simpson  Welburn (My Great Uncle) and John Welburn (My Great Uncle). Are there any relations in Tamworth who have other photos of this family? My ultimate dream would be to find a photo of my Great Great Grandfather, as I know from the photo that I already have what my Great Grandfather and his brothers looked like and the resemblance between the brothers is uncanny, and the look has carried on in the generations. I would love to hear from anyone on any matter relating to the family. My Great Great Grandfather was married to Lucy Simpson who was a school teacher. Thank you  :)
