What a great coin Peter. Didn't think it would be that good when I saw it. Well worth a return visit in the Autumn.

Hi Jas
I came across this old thread of yours, and you mention a GH Inshaw of birmingham.
My ggg uncle Alfred Rodway's father in law was councillor John Joseph Inshaw, and I think that Gh was one of johns sons.
John  was a noted Victorian inventor, and I have a lot of info on him.  the date of 1920 would fit as well
I have a pic of john dated 1882 in the driving seat of a steam fire engine that he designed and built, and with him are his sons (one was named john george - aged 6 in the 61 census, but it is possible that he took the name george to stop any mix up with his father).

Hi jas
been doing the genealogy bit for about 15 yrs, must admit i hav'nt done much for a couple of years now.  managed to get enough history to write up 2 volumes, its amazing what you can find out, and new family to meet. managed to get back to the mid 1600's, but then the commonwealth period means that a lot of info is lost forever.  like the metal detecting, history seems to take a big part in whatever i seem to do Grin

the thing is..its so time consuming, but fascinating all the same. the info does start drying out the further back you go which is a shame . Sad
