Joseph Edgar Headley, clearly a man who enjoyed his pipe. A fine picture from Richard Starbnuck.
It’s always good to hear from Richard Starbuck, who’s an old friend of the Brownhills Blog. Richard, you may recall if you’ve been here since the beginning, reminded me of Starbucks Butchers with an excellent picture of the family shop, that stood roundabout where The Coffee House is today.
Last week, Richard sent me these two smashing pictures of the Headley family, and had this to say:
Hi Bob
Joseph Edgar Headley was my Great Grandfather, I’ve received the pictures below from my family and wanted to share them.
Thanks
Richard
Readers are to share what they know of the Headleys – where the shop stood (although I have a good idea), what they sold – the store appears to be a grocers – and any other recollections that may be relevant. My immense and sincere gratitude to Richard for sharing such wonderful images.
If you have anything to add, please comment on this post of mail me at BrownhillsBob at Googlemail dot com. Cheers.
I’m not sure where Headley’s shop was, and exactly what it sold. Hoping readers can hep – I’ve done my best to enhance this picture. Image kindly shared by Richard Starbuck.
