SUMMARY:Birmingham: On the Trail of The Pilgrim Fathers
DESCRIPTION:On the Trail of The Pilgrim Fathers – CANCELLED\nSpeaker: J Keith Cheetham \nThe Pilgrim Fathers stand out in history as the best remembered of all American colonists and over one million North Americans count them as their ancestors. The Pilgrims were the first group to found their own colony and run it on a system of administration and obedience which was the forerunner of the established American tradition of government. Yet who were these people and from where did the name ‘Pilgrim Fathers’ originate? \nKeith traces their story from various parts of England\, first to Holland then on their epic journey to the New World on the Mayflower in 1620. \nPreviously planned for March 2019\, rescheduled due to CV 19 \nNote that this meeting is on a Saturday afternoon. \n

SUMMARY:Kenilworth: 'Fred Hancox - An Exceptional Edwardian Amateur Coventry Photographer'
DESCRIPTION:A talk by David Fry\, a researcher and author from Coventry\, who has been giving talks for over 25 years. David describes this talk: \n“Twenty years ago a few glass plates turned up at a car boot sale in Warwickshire. This led to the discovery of many more that had been found in the attic of a house in Earlsdon. With a lot of detective work the photographer tuned out to be a Coventry carpenter born in 1876 who appeared to take up the hobby in about 1900. Unusually he not only captured family life and holidays but also his workplace\, events in the city\, sporting events and military life from his time in the Royal Warwickshire Territorials. It is unusual to find such an extensive collection of working class amateur photographs from a period when the hobby was so expensive – normally it would be the domain of the middle classes with their own particular cultural interests.  \n“David has developed several talks\, based on this catch of plates that have evolved as more has been found out about Hancox.  He will put together aspects from all three for our delight. \n“The first is a general view of the collection based mainly upon the pre-war years. The second includes more views from this early period as well as the inter-war years reflecting the additional information uncovered about some of the individuals shown in the pictures as well as holiday fashions – the family were always at the cutting edge of fashion! The third talk brings the extra dimension of the recent contact made with Hancox grandson’s which revealed more material on Hancox’s early life together with a few more photos.” \nI’m sure he’s going to leave us wanting more! \n— \nWe are pleased to announce that David has agreed to give this talk online using Zoom. Registration is now OPEN \nYou can register by using this link: Fred Hancox: An exceptional Edwardian amateur Coventry photographer \nAfter registering\, you will receive a confirmation email containing information about joining the meeting. If you lose the link for any reason\, just re-register to receive a new one. \n“Doors Open” at 7:15pm for 7:30pm start. \nMeeting times are prompt\, please allow yourself good time\, especially if you’re using Zoom for the first time. \nVisit this page to find out how we do it. \nAll registrants will be acknowledged with joining instructions included. \nAll Midland Ancestors presentations are the intellectual property of the speaker presenting.
