Good Morning,
I am trying to find evidence of my ancestor being employed as a butler at Chirk, not the
castle I do not think, but close to. He and his wife Elizabeth I believe lived in
Brykinalt Lodge.
They had four children I believe, Bertram, Harold, Dorothy and Florence.
Dorothy Evelyn Allard married Edward Abraham on 11 July 1894 in Chirk Parish Church.
Florence Violet Allard was born at Brykinalt Lodge on 19 May 1896 and then married
CWF Cree on 5 April 1920 at Chirk Parish Church.
With the exception of Harold and Florence the family at some time ????? emigrate to
Canada, from Liverpool I imagine ???? Harold went to War and on his return seems to of
gone South to Blandford, Dorset as an estate manager. Florence and her husband emigrate at
some time to Australia.
Trying to put some meat on the bones, what employment was my Grandfather doing (Harold),
is there a census, where can I get marriage certificates of Dorothy & Florence, does
anyone have connections to Cree or Abraham?
A lot of ???? I know, but any assistance help or advice most welcome, even a photo of the
Parish Church
Thanks
Graham Allard
