A ‘work in progress’ family history website starting from an Archer family of South Oxford, who were freemen, brewers, haulage contractors, and first ‘Archer & Co’ then ‘Archer Cowley & Co’ furniture removers in the 19th and 20th Centuries, inter alia, to whom are linked by marriage the Penfolds and Wells of Southwark and Surrey, the Reeds of Devon, the Gilders of Oxford and Hinckley, the Morgans of Petworth, Sussex, the Garners of Middleton, Lancs and many others. There are connections via Phil and the present generation (born 1930s/40s) with a patent law firm known as "UD&L" with motor-racing and Scottish antecedents.
Here’s Chas enjoying a joke with a friend after the splendid lunch at the Sandy, Bedfordshire Golf Club. One or two commendably brief speeches were made. We probably had our Bedlington terrier, Fred with us, as ever, though he was very good about going to sleep in his crate in the car, or in Chas and Pam’s kitchen. This shot just reveals that the ‘vertical lines’ in the photos of Pam and Eileen are in fact gas-balloon ribbons.
