Notes on Florence Currington’s family:

Florence’s family lived in Rampton; her father, George, was a farm labourer; George and his wife Ann were buried in Rampton churchyard. She had three younger siblings, William Thomas, Daisy, and Ivy Elizabeth. William was a fruit grower in Rampton. He and his wife Alice had five children. George Rich left the youngest, his cousin Constance, a small legacy in his will of 2001 (but he outlived her). Daisy married Frederick Young, a butcher in Rampton, and had a daughter, Doreen, but died when Doreen was 3. Just over a year later, Frederick married Ivy Elizabeth and she raised Doreen as her daughter. In his will of 1991, George Rich left his cousin Doreen 25% of his estate, but she died in 2001. Ivy Elizabeth was a member of Cottenham Salvation Army for 30 years.

Dear Visitor,

Thank you for exploring historical Cambridgeshire! We hope you enjoy your visit and, if you do,  would consider making a donation today.

Capturing Cambridge makes accessible thousands of photos and memories of Cambridge and its surrounding villages and towns. It is run by the Museum of Cambridge which, though 90 years old, is one of the most poorly publicly funded local history museums in the UK. It receives no core funding from local or central government nor from the University of Cambridge.

As a result, we are facing a crisis; we have no financial cushion – unlike many other museums in Cambridge – and are facing the need to drastically cut back our operations which could affect our ability to continue to run and develop this groundbreaking local history website.

If Capturing Cambridge matters to you, then the survival of the Museum of the Cambridge should matter as well. If you won’t support the preservation of your heritage, no-one else will! Your support is critical.

If you love Capturing Cambridge, and you are able to, we’d appreciate your support.

Every donation makes a world of difference.

Thank you,
Roger Lilley, Chair of Trustees
Museum of Cambridge
