Re: Dorothy Westell (Westell)
 

Hi Jim - haven't got that one but do have a copy of Harper and Sarah's wedding photo (1926 - All Saints, Clayton-le-Moors). Have had this for a while in my family history records and if my aging memory serves me correct I am fairly sure it was one you had downloaded onto Acc'y Web. Not sure if I was allowed to copy it (am confessing now) - bit too late to worry about that, and am sure I wouldn't have done so if instructed not to. Not me!!!! Oops! sorry if I wasn't supposed to. (Not sure of the ruling re this sort of thing). However, it was of great importance to me along with the information attached to it as I was unaware that Harper had remarried until I read your notes at that time. Thank you for this. Hope you are keeping well.

Hi Misswessy, am sorry for the delay in acknowledging your request but have only just seen this posting. My apologies. A few weeks ago I sent a heap of information by snail mail (on hard copies) to Amy Westell who of course is from the same family line as yourself but have not heard from her as to whether she has received this. If you would like to check with her, and if she did receive it, I think you will find some information that will be of interest to you. You can send me a private message if you wish and I will answer promptly. Will be more than happy to help.

By the way, William was the son of Harper and his first wife Dorothy (nee Laytham), not Sarah. Harper's mother was called Sarah (nee Harper - hence the name of her son, and this name then became a name which has been passed on through the generations). Harper's second wife was called Sarah. The second marriage was much later in life and produced no children. Harper had 7 children with his first marriage to Dorothy and his second wife had had 9 with her first husband.
