Extra information in the Parish Magazine
George Roberts was born in Badsey, in one of the cottages that used to stand where the Churchyard has been extended, but for most of his adult life he lived in Wickhamford, where he moved after living for some years in one of the cottages on the way to Bowers Hill. He was one of the old school of growers, having worked the same piece of land for 50 years and remaining active until his illness a few weeks ago. For many years he was much in demand as a licensed pig killer and his work took him round a wide district. He will be much missed by his many friends in these parts, and we send his widow and family our deepest sympathy in their loss.
