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.
My grandma Elizabeth Archer, the bride, on her wedding day. Her mother was Elizabeth Elston before she married Walter Gilder. George Elston looks as if he is about her age. So perhaps he is her cousin. I must look that up. He evidently moved while the photographer’s shutter was open - hence the blur. Lizzie’s mother died when Lizzie was about age 7, and she went to live with her mother’s sister, who was married to George Blake, and was known as ‘Aunty Blake’.
