Hello there

I was wondering if any members could advise on where I could obtain a copy of the booklet "A story about Sambrook Parish” written by Mabel Wheat and published @1954 by the “The Advertiser Printing Works” Newport, Shropshire.

I understand that the book is out of print and the publisher no longer exists.

This particular booklet contains information about my particular area of research -- The Stokes family and the Pickstock and surrounding area.

Kind regards

Ken

Hello Ken

If you come to Shropshire you may well find a copy in the Library that you can look at.

If you wish to buy a second hand copy then a good place to start is AbeBooks.

You could try writing to the Newport Advertiser to see if any reader has a copy they would be willing to sell or look up the details of your family.

Hi Mike

Thank you for your suggestions.

I will give the Abebooks and Advertiser a try.  I hope to be able to visit Shropshire later in the year so if I have not been sucessful by then a visit to the library will be on the cards.

Regards

Ken
