We were in touch years ago about your Kerridge family history - I was then living in Luton. Glad to see that you are still researching and I have enjoyed reading through the entries

Best regards

Edith Fakes was my grandmother - although never knew her because she dies before I was born. She married Alfred Gosden as you say and had three sons (Rodney, Eric and Vernon)all now passed away. My father was the youngest, Vernon.

We now live in Ipswich and were in Walsham at a concert just on Saturday. Met Janet Kerridge - but she had not heard of the Fakes family at all. Interested if you have any more information.
