So... I'm finally sharing by far my best find ever... Having been back 5 times in total I'm ready.
I gave myself enough time to build a complete (ish) history, luckily it was all there....
Having lost both parents, James, aka Jim was left his fathers entire estate, despite being one of three children.
Jim met the love of his life, Elizabeth soon after, he lived in Middlesex at the time.. Jim was Irish, Elizabeth was Scottish... Her influence, only in items is obvious. None of her clothes remained.
He purchased 'Cowboy Cottage' in 1969 for £10,000 in cash with his new wife... Sadly she only lived for a further 7 years, aged 52 (they met a little later in life)
During their life together, Jim and Elizabeth shared a passion for all things cowboy... It was everywhere in the house... I was thoroughly indulged and this house along with Jim and Elizabeth will remain in my memory... I am also a huge fan of country!
I found info on the internet that Cowboy Cottage was sold again in 1990, I've not been able to establish what happened to Jim but the house lives on!
