Hello David,
Thanks for your message, it's always a treat to receive some feedback on the Hurcomb's and Uley. The Granny Hurcombe I referred to was pictured in the History of Uley book and the photo was taken in 1935 when she was 101, also in the picture is her grandson Alan Mills. Based on these dates and your visit in 1956 "your" Granny Hurcombe must have been one in a long line of "Granny Hurcombe's". I guess this is how legends are made... Don't have any info on the Pearce family. Regards, Tom Vermont, USA
