Stredder
- Folkingham
Josiah Stredder (b.about 1728, Boston, Lincs) and his son, also Josiah, (b. about 1756, Boston) were bakers at 17 Market Place, from about 1759 to 1820 - currently Quaintways Teashop. They gave rise to several generations of Stredders in Folkingham. Children of the elder Josiah, born between about 1754 and 1769 include: Suzannah, Holms, Ann, William, John, Henry Money, Dinah. The following are also said to be the children of the elder, but probably of the young Josiah born between 1781 and 1806: John, Hannah, Frances(Fanny), Edmund, James, Sarah. Many of the latter's offspring moved to Liverpool, Nottingham, or London. Some crossed the Atlantic. Many were master builders.

Information required about Cuthbert Edward Bradley and Cuthbert Bede
- Folkingham
Cuthbert Edward Bradley (born 2nd April 1861) was an artist and also wrote hunting books. He lived at Folkingham and I believe he may have been the Vicar there.

I have photos of Cuthbert Bede and one of Cuthbert Bradley with his brothers Henry Waldron Bradley (born April 14th 1863) and William Hancocks Bradley (Born March 31st 1862). Any further information would be great. Please contact me if you are interested in this family at all.

Butlers in Scunthorpe
- Frodingham
Searching for information on (or descendants of) CHARLES BUTLER and JANE HOSKISSON, who lived at 76 Frodingham Road in 1901. They had two sons, GEORGE WILLIAM, born in Birmingham in 1878, and HARRY H. (possibly Hoskisson) born about 1880.
Both brothers married in the early 1900s in Glanford Brigg. I have no names for the brides.
It is possible that George abandoned his wife and/or family, because he turned up in Canada several years later, gave misleading information about his birthplace and background, and married again in 1922. He died in Canada in 1961, and never revealed his true birthplace.
