Hi,

There is a Horace SORE in Canada in the 1950s & 1960s, I found these pictures at this site,

it's quite an unusual name so I thought I'd post them in case you find 'your' Horace SORE did go to Canada

Hi Daisypetal
Thanks for the sites, from the 1 photo I recently had sent to me by a new found 2nd cousin it certainly looks like him. I think he was named after his Uncle who was killed in ww1.

Looks like Horace c Sore came home to England at least in the 1970/80's

Now where do I go ?

I have an address but is it still there>>> Purliegh Hall Cottages Maldon.

I would write but chances are Horace is long gone or the Cottages are   I don't mind if the letter is returned I just don't want it goin nowhere.  If you know what I mean.

  Merry Xmas rootschatters & may all your rellies find you

Hi coppernob

Your Purleigh Hall cottages are they in Maldon or in Purleigh its self. As there is a parish website for Purleigh.

might be worth trying to contact them to see if the cottages are there.

Hi  Ricky1
Thanks for that the address was purleigh hall cotts maldon essex,   but I did wonder whether now it would be just essex.    I was also looking for Cromwell Lane and have found that -- well the lane anyway altho' I don't have a number so I wouldn't know if the house is still there.

What it is this family history lark

Thanks very much for the info   & Merry Christmas

   Erm Can't find where I originally posted a request about Purliegh Cottages Maldon. And a Gt Aunt & Uncle who lived there.
Someone   suggested I contact Maldon TIC for info on both.   So I did & the cottages are still there,  Helen from the tic also did a bit of research for me & found some people with the surname I was looking for.  After writing to all of the people mentioned & enclosing a sae, I had a reply from one of them on Saturday     my gt uncle's son wow!!
I had found him and he was very interested in what I had found out on the family.  I have now spoken to them on the phone & have been invited to go to see them.   What a delight I have in store.

SO A BIG THANK YOU TO ALL WHO HELPED ME FIND A PART OF MY FAMILY.  WHAT A LOVELY NEW YEAR GIFT.
