MarieC Posted October 18, 2023 Report Share Posted October 18, 2023 Hello All. My name is Marie,, and I'm the granddaughter of Joe and Lucy Allcott of the boating fraternity. We lived in Braunston at the stop house for several years where Joe worked for British Waterways until his passing in 1988. I'm looking at tracking as much information on his side of the family,, His dad was William Allcott b.1884 and known s a canal man. Can anyone point me in the right direction 🙂 Many thanks Marie 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
