David Cutting, who lives in Wymondham, has contacted the blog editor as he is trying to find any information about Walter Cutting who was married to his Great Aunt Caroline Cutting (one Cutting marrying another Cutting, probably distant cousins).
He understands that Walter was a grocer and draper in New or Old Buckenham, that his father farmed Abbey Farm at Old Buckenham (near the present airfield) and that Walter was born there. He has a photo of the house from the old gable end of the property.
Walter and Caroline had many children. One of them was Catherine Cutting and David has a copy of her invite to Queen Victoria’s Diamond Jubilee celebrations on 22 June 1897 in the market place of New Buckenham. He also has a photo of the shop and of Catherine although the shop may be the one he had in Foulsham, he is not sure.
There may be some of the Cutting relations still living locally (Banham?). David is making this request for a Karen Linderberg (she is Catherine's granddaughter and lives in California, USA). He believes Karen has lots of other photos and information that may be of interest to local historians.
If any readers know anything about the Cuttings or their shop then Karen would be delighted to hear about it. Her email is klindeberg349@gmail.com should you want to contact her directly but David would love to hear as well (davidcutting@btinternet.com) and so would the blog editor (oldbuckhistory@aol.com).
