    Hi There. I am holding a Mundella Grammar School reunion in August 2015 at the Trent Bridge Inn 1400-1800 and beyond. For us ancients who first graced its Collygate Road portals 50 years ago. As part of the afternoon, I wanted to have a short walk round the old sites (memory lane stuff) and it would be wonderful if a member of the Historical society could please perhaps show us some of the interesting Meadows heritage / history as part of the stroll, which needs to be about 30-45 minutes max. Is this possible please? Thanks in advance for your kind help. Paul Lucas T: 01538 754125; M:07773967530 E: lucasaid04@talktalk.net

    I live in Stapleford, looking at old maps there are no roads here; but when I dig my garden all over, down about a foot, I get a “floor”. Flat stones, clay, more flat stones. Wondering if a roman road, as adjacent ditch. Had anything be found for A52 construction, as reckon maybe crossing at Sandiacre Stapleford, Beeston railway had roman coins. Pattern looks like many river crossings, protected by fort on each land area – maybe to attack as armies cross rivers?

    Hi

    I wonder if Sarah Seaton is still connected to your organisation. My brother and myself have just discovered that we are her uncles – and sons of Malcolm Lee – and are keen to make contact.

    Hi
    I have a pair of scissors made by the Nottingham Handcraft Company. Any information on this company would be of interest.

      My understanding is that in 1947 Nottingham Leather Company and Nottingham Handcraft Company Ltd were formed to produce leather items for war veterans to aid their rehabilitation and after 20 years or so of trading the company was renamed Nottingham Rehab Supplies after a merger between Nottingham Handcraft and Nottingham Medical Aids – it is currently called NRS Healthcare and you can find more details at https://www.nrshealthcare.co.uk and https://www.nrshealthcare.co.uk/our-history

    Hi
    Can you please let me know how I can purchase a copy of the Nottingham Historian Autumn/Winter issue 2008?
    I am after an article by Alan Mallatratt on Fred Whiten 1868-1950 and would be happy to pay for a copy of that as an alternative.
    Kind regards

    I am a retired farmer from Indiana. This last year I started searching my Ingram family roots. My research indicates I am related to Sir Robert Ingram. Would like to obtain more information on Ingram family in Nottingham? is there a book on Ingram family history? Or any articles on Robert Ingram? Just discovered the Randolph Engelham was sheriff in 1155. Now consider that Randolph might be connected to Ingram family. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated!!!!!!

    Hi there,
    I am looking for information on two particular subjects that I hope you can help with.
    Firstly, is any information at all in regard to village life during WW2 in Nottingham (in particular Wollaton Village during the war – as I am aware that Wollaton Hall was used as a base for the Americans.)
    Secondly, any information about the WLA in Nottinghamshire around 1940-1942 would be very appreciated.

      Hello Emma, thank you for your email

      I’m not aware of any articles specifically about WLA in The Nottinghamshire Historian but there are other local websites containing some information, have a look at :
      http://www.ournottinghamshire.org.uk/page/ww2_land_army_women?path=0p2p55p
      https://www.bbc.co.uk/history/ww2peopleswar/stories/60/a2754560.shtml
      https://wartimememoriesproject.com/ww2/homefront/womenslandarmy.php
      Wollaton Hall was used as a base for the US 508th Infantry Regiment and the 82nd Airbourne prior to D-Day and you can find out more about that at:
      https://www.leftlion.co.uk/read/2019/april/nottingham-history-508th-wollaton-park/
      Nottinghamshire Archives is a good place to do some research.

      Hope this helps.

    Greetings,

    I’m not the best speller but I see the word “Dowen” is spelled incorrectly on your website. In the past I’ve used a service like SpellAlerts.com or SiteChecker.com to help keep mistakes off of my websites.
