Sue's talk will look at the history of a west Devon family over three generations from the late-eighteenth century until the early twentieth century. The talk will focus on the journey which took the family from the Poor House in Lamerton to a Police House in Plymstock, via Dunterton, Bradstone, Alphington and Aylesbeare, and will touch on the remarkable historic buildings through which they passed.
