Member Since: February 2006 Posts: 3 Send Message	High, I am Robert van Bentum, grandson of Herbert Mellor 1899-1962, who had an older half sister, Annie Rushworth 1890, who married a Charles H Hirst in 1912. Herbert and Annie are both from the Lockwood area in Huddersfield. I am looking for current generations. Grandpa left England in 1917, for Iraq and India, and did not return until 1946, except for holidays. I am looking for a shoebox with his letters home, if there is one.
