Thanks for putting me on the right road Jess, like I say they are not in my direct line, and she will be no relation at all, but it is really interesting. It is Stanley and Herbert who got the OBE's, probably during the war for services to agriculture, must have fed the troops. Hope you weren't late for work and thanks again for the help. Don't worry about Barbara, I can look her up now I know who she is. Update--couldn't hide my curiosity and found her in Yorkshire in 1881 with parents and 10 siblings!!!!! busy woman her mother!!!! Gloria :-)))))

Updated abouve found 1891 and 1901 and found that he was married to barbara- will find her parent when i get back from work, where i should have gone 5 mins ago but wanted to finish him off!

Just read your last message-----you clever person you. Should have known it would be mistranscribed as it has been before. Cheers Jess Gloria

Wow Jess, you have been busy. Don't know which one he married. I have the info you found but cannot find him after the marriage, or any sign of his sons. I have gone a bit sideways on him as he is my gt grandfathers cousin, I was really interested in the OBE's---not got any more of those in any connection. Just nosey really to find out more. Gloria

I have two rellies who were awarded OBE's for services to agriculture. I know their father was born 1865 in Briercliffe Lancashire, and I believe he married in 1889. I cannot find him in 1891 or 1901, he was called Bannister Kippax and his sons, who were awarded the OBE's were Herbert and Stanley. I don't know dates or where they were born, so I thought if I could find something about their awards I could work around that. Know its along shot but thought some of you knowledgeable people may have some idea where to look. Gloria
