Brock and Medland families in Exbourne area

In the early 1800s my ancestor John Brock migrated from Exbourne to London. His father, Mark Brock (1759-1834) was a tailor in Exbourne, and the son of Richard Brock (possibly born Iddesleigh 1721) and Sarah Medland (born 1717 Jacobstow).I would be very interested in contacting others researching these families or the Exbourne area.See More

Bob Brock replied to William Bruce Hillman's discussion 'Can You Guess The Date On This One.' in the group Lost Faces: Ancestor Photos & Albums
I'll have a guess at 1917. There's no sign of the "Edwardian" frippery - big hats, feather boas etc - and the styles look simpler and closer to those of the 1920s. The woman on the right is clearly showing off an engagement or…
