Hello,
My name is John-Paul Babbington, I am from London in the UK and I am very proud to be a Babbington and am heartened to see the work everyone has put into the "Family".
I am the last in my part of the family Babbington line, my father died when I was in my teens having not told me much about the family prior to 1914.
What I do know is that (and am very proud of the fact) was my grandfather Sidney (Joseph/Richard ?) Babbington was already an Gunner in the 23rd Battalion, Royal Field Artillery prior to World War One and was shipped 3 days after the war started. He made it through ending up as Sergeant winning the 14th Star and became a Bus Driver in London. I do not know when he died but Stepney does feature in there somewhere. He was married to Laura but they seperated after coming back. My father was raised in Hampshire but I do not have any current contact with family there.
I am guessing that he would have been born in 1885-1890(ish) and had my father in 1910 aged 20 to 22, assuming he lived to 60 years he would have died around the 1950.
I really would like to break through to the 19cth bit of the family and start feeling connected to you guys !!
Can anyone help please......
