Cockerell Family History

I've put this family history online for my sister, cousins, aunts, uncles...
anyone else who's interested. There's still lots to be added and edited.

In an attempt to find out more about my great grand-mother Florence (who had been a silversmith) I discovered a huge amount about her bookbinder husband Douglas and his five unusual, talented siblings. They all led very different but creative lives. Here are some of my discoveries of those six Cockerell so far. More coming soon...

Any information on my family history is welcomed.
