Trying to locate descendants of Alfred, Percy, Frederick and Beatrice Reveley, the brothers and sister of Joseph William Reveley. All the children of Joseph Reveley and Beatrice Bancroft. Joseph (my g-grandfather) came to live on the Isle of Sheppey in Kent during WW1 - believe Alf remained in London (Bethnal Green/Poplar) where he married Mabel Kate Hart. Also believe that Percy, Fred and Beatrice moved from London to Dorset with their father, sometime between 1901 and 1911. Alf and Joseph both known for their interest in boxing. Both used the surname Bancroft (taken from their mother's maiden name) during their boxing careers. I would love to find out what happened to the rest of the Reveley family.

I am a descendent of Joseph Reveley. Joseph had a son called Jeff and Jeff is my Mum's dad. Joseph is my great grandfather on my mother's side.

Joseph had another couple of Sons as well as Jeff ... Donovan (nicknamed boxer) and Dennis. Jeff is still alive but Dennis is dead. I think Boxer is too potentially. Jeff still lives on Sheppey. If you want more information let me know. [email protected].

Two points, Christopher

One: Jacqueline posted in 2004, and has zero posts against her name

Two: Posting your personal e-mail on here is not allowed..............and it isn't wise

You could try to contact the poster by clicking on her name, but don't be too surprised if there is no response.
