Harrod family Dover 1890s to present day
« on: Friday 17 July 09 09:55 BST (UK) »
Hi
I am researching my Grandfather's family and know that they moved to Dover from Freiston near Boston Lincs in the 1890s.
I would be grateful for any information anyone may have.

Hi, I am currently at work but will post names etc when i get home.
1815 would be too early I am afraid. 
I do know that they lived at 196 Clarendon Place from arrival for quite a few years.

Possibly.  There is a strong Lincolnshire line but my GGF suddenly uprooted and went to Dover to work in the Admiralty Works.  Perhaps a relative was already there?

Hi Allan1, welcome to RootsChat.

I can find one Baptism in 1927, & a Marriage in 1940 (plus one in 1862).
Also one stray having his Banns called in Bridge in 1920 (he's 'of Eastry')

I can't post the details as they may well be still alive & we are not allowed to discuss living people on here.
If they are likely to be yours, I'll be happy to send the details by private message.
