I have spent many years searching for my father, who I’ve been estranged from for many years. A few days ago I found this:
I am not going to pretend that my father and I were close, or that I am even in mourning, but I do want to understand more about who he was as a man. For the first time, I actually have the opportunity to talk with people who knew him who can tell me what he was like, and I’ve been spending a LOT of hours doing just that.
To give you an example of what kind of man he was, here is an article I found about him: https://www.postguam.com/news/local/wwii-vet-faces-eviction-difficulty-with-services/article_bfbc3016-f1d5-11e7-82b1-eb19b1affce8.html . He was certainly one of a kind.
I have his affairs to clean up, and my research into his life to complete, so I will not be able to work on all things Vosper for a while, perhaps for a couple of months (he has 22 “recent” addresses!).
------------------------------
I have had on my plate for some time working with a Vosper descendant where the Vosper’s lived in Tewkesbury, Gloucestershire. Unfortunately, (I feel so guilty!) I have not had the time to work on figuring out how they connect. If you are interested in taking this on while I’m busy, please get in touch, and I will put you in touch with the Tewkesbury descendant.
Stay well, stay safe,
Cousin Teri
