Trying to find Mansfield

ProfilePosted byOptionsPost Date

Unknown Report 19 Feb 2004 13:16

I am trying to find any information on my great grandmother's family. She was called Flora Mansfield and was born circa 1875 in Warwick or Birmingham. From my research I think she had two brothers called Albert and William, and a sister called Rose. According to my Grandmother (her daughter) the family were quite wealthy and owned, or co-owned, the cycle saddle company "Brooks & Mansfield" or "Mansfield & Brooks". Flora was disowned by her family when she met my great grandfather (although they never married) and therefore my grandmother has never known any of her mother's family. I would be ever so grateful for any information anyone has either on descendants of Flora's siblings, or the company Brooks & Mansfield/Mansfield & Brooks.
