The earliest
known ancestor is Thomas GRAVES who was married in the Hertfordshire village
of Furneaux Pelham in 1745. His son
George moved 5 miles away to Langley in Essex. Two more generations of the GR(E)AVES family lived there, all
probably agricultural labourers. A
grand-daughter of George, Eliza, married William CRANWELL at Newport Essex in
1828 and went with him to Gt.Hormead in Hertfordshire. |
