As this site is
in memory of the Preddy brothers, then the first link on the list
is linked to
"The Preddy Memorial Foundation" .Please take the time to visit this site.
Information from
these sites may not be totally accurate,
(Except The Preddy Memorial
Foundation, and the Clara Preddy sites)
So please do not mail me telling me they are incorrect as they
are not my sites.
BUT I hope to put up ALL relevant information on George and
William when I have got all information I can.
This information will be highly accurate (I hope) as the information comes form one of
the Preddy brothers relatives.
So please return for up dates.
Thank You.
