Frederick Edmund Rowe Breakwell was my great great grandfather. He was married to Emma North in 1863, he was 34 years of age and she was 23. Frederick came from Cleobury Mortimer in Shropshire, Emma was the daughter of Samuel North from Ruddington in Nottinghamshire.

Frederick and Emma had a large family. I believe that the family had strong connections to Leicestershire as well as Nottinghamshire. Frederick died from injuries sustained at Long Eaton in 1885.
