Family History on the KEEBLE'S

I'm currently doing my family history, and am interested in anyone who knows anything, or knows a Keeble.  Most of my family are still living in Norfolk, mainly in the Attleborough area.  My Grandmother, Doris Lucy Keeble died in 1994 and lived in Attleborough most of her life, and worked at the Cider factory there.  My Grandad, Francis John Keeble died in 1985 and was a bus driver, and was a driver in WW2.

Anyone with any information would be gratefully recieved!

RE: Family History on the KEEBLE'S

Hi;

Not related at least i don't think so.

I had family connections at Attleborough

But its interesting to see that your grandfather was a bus driver as my uncle was one at Attleborough. My father also worked at Gaymers Cider during the late 1940s

Is your grandfather still of this world?.

 

regards.......

No, both have now passed away.  It's interesting what you say about your Grandfather and Father though.  My Dad, Stepmum and sister still live in Attleborough.

RE: Family History on the KEEBLE'S

Hi;

Had an interesting day on my family search, met up with a relative from my Brooks line, at Lowestoft, along with all the info he was able to give me, it was interesting to know that he too worked at Gaymers Cider, he was there when Gaymers were bombed 1940.

My father worked there also but later after his service in the RAF.

I wonder if your family living in Attleborough would remember the brooks family, my grandfather was known as Hallalueha Brooks, and most of the family were in the Salvation army band.

My uncle drove the buses.

Be nice to hear any old stories..

Regards................

There where Keebles living in the New Catton area of Norwich, several years ago.  By the way is your avatar the old Nelson battleship, or one of the same  class?.

I don't know any Keeble's in the New Catton area, but that's interesting to know.  My Nan worker at Gaymers, I reckon, in the 70's/80's.  (I'll have to find out from Dad!).

I don't know George Keeble, but you never know!  We COULD be related somewhere along the line!  Thanks for telling me that!

RE: Family History on the KEEBLE'S

Hi

Hope you are progressing well on your search for your Keeble Roots.

I see that Francis John Keeble was born 29 Apr 1910, in the Norwich registration district.

If your researches show a connection to the Kenninghall (or North Lopham) part of Norfolk, do get in touch, I have a moderate collection of Keebles (and other surnames) from that area.

(see my web site on http://homepage.ntlworld.com/phil.bowden/  )

All the Best 

Phil Bowden

RE: Family History on the KEEBLE'S

Oh, and yes,  he was born on 29 April 1910!  I've managed to get hold of his birth certificate.  Luckily, so far, all my family have been born in the Norwich/Norfolk area, so the certificates have been really easy to get hold of.

Thanks once again.

Thanks Phil.  As yet, I have no connections to the areas you mention, but only time will tell.  You never know!  Thanks for the link.  I'll take a look.
