Hello Robert, I am researching the family of my great grandmother who was born (1847) and
raised in 'The Doglands' in Fradswell. I do know that through her father Charles
Capewell (1822 - 1892) have just recently discovered that his father, grandfather and
great grandfather were all named James, the great grandfather being married to Elizabeth
Betts (1730-1803) and they being my 5x removed Grandparents.
I live in Stoke-on-Trent, not far from Fradswell and am planning to drive down there in a
couple of days but I have sadly today discovered that 75 new houses have now been built in
The Doglands, which has disappointed me a lot.
However, I am plodding on and searching for more Capewells and hoping maybe to meet some
as I believe that their name still lives on in Fradswell. Will let you know how I go on.
Please get in touch if you have the time, I am very excited at the thought of there being
so many of them and even in America which I find really interesting as Clara sent her two
eldest daughters to live in America and I now believe that she would have sent them to a
relation over there, so there is another avenue to research. Regards (Beatrice)
