Member Since: April 2003 Posts: 3 Send Message	I am a descendant of the Holmes family who were the blacksmiths of Whitchurch, (now Whitchurch on Thames) Oxfordshire. I would be interested in contacting the "senior" branch of the family for any memories and mementoes they may have, which is difficult as they have all now left the village after five hundred years! These would be the following people: Elsie (the widow of John Holmes, Weston super Mare), her sons Richard, or Charles (now in Australia) or their sister Caroline. Thanks. Greg Holmes
