David, On the 1937-1983 Freebmd Birth Index, he is named as Ivoy llewellyn digby. 1885 Jul-Aug-Sept Braintree Essex. So perhaps it would help to look for Ivoy. Barbara. |

I don't know where you would look, but there were a lot of silk mills in Braintree, and also the Courtauld family started up there. Perhaps your Digby's were employed by them? Briantree was built on the textile industry, rather than farming as a lot would believe. (comes from Braintree :-) |
