Brett Payne's Photo-Sleuth website has a wonderful series of images of a family from Scotland who settled in the Staffordshire town of Burton-on-Trent in the late 19th/early 20th centuries. The images were sent to Brett by James Morley, and concern Robert William Melbourne, the son of Charles James Melbourne and Elizabeth Janet Smith, born in the third quarter of 1892.
The research is a great read at the following blog link: A Scottish Family in Staffordshire. If you are related to the family, do get in touch with Brett!
