Norman France (Al’s Dad)

Bell France (Lynne’s Mum)

and their elder half-brother, John.

 

 

There were France families living in Whitehaven and Bridekirk over several centuries.  We are sure they must be related, but have yet to find the proof.

 

The France family can be traced back to the beginning of the parish registers of Cockermouth, Cumberland. Our Grandfather, James Banks France moved to Northumberland in the early 1900s. There, he married Elizabeth Ann Parker.
