STRATFORD siblings will be the next talking point at the Warwickshire Local History Society.
Jim Ranahan, cataloguing archivist at the Shakespeare Birthplace Trust, will be shining a light on the Usher siblings at the next evening talk on Tuesday September 16 at Aylesford Primary School in Warwick.
Enid and Neville Usher were long time residents of Stratford, until Enid’s untimely death in 1998 and Neville’s in 2021. They immersed themselves in Stratford and Warwickshire life, not least through their business, the Stratford Bookshop.
Both were strong supporters of local heritage, working with the Stratford Society and for Neville, harnessing his accounting and organisational skills over many years for Warwickshire Local History Society.
In their different ways and through their varied interests, Enid and Neville demonstrated a passion for life across the county. This passion is reflected in the Papers of Enid and Neville Usher which, along with records relating to the Stratford Bookshop are cared for by the SBT.
The talk will start at 7.30 pm with tea and coffee served from 7pm.
