Let me start again.

For many years I have had a silverplate tray inscribed:
Presented to _ Dr H W SAVILLE _ by his fellow practitioners at Radcliffe _ ON HIS RETIREMENT _ after many years of much appreciated work _ IN THEIR INTERESTS _ September 1929.

I had assumed that the Radcliffe mentioned was in Notts., because I was told that his family was associated with Rufford Abbey, which is indeed in that county.

I have no direct connecion with the Savilles/Saviles The tray was originally given to me by one Lady Mary Calder, as I remember it, who was a friend of my old-maid aunt. It is possible that Lady Mary was actually the widow of doctor Saville, who later re-married well.

Since I am approaching 90 it seemed to me appropriate to find a direct descendant of the doctor who would appreciate the tray as a family heirloom. I have no idea how to make a decision should there be 50 applicants - which is why I approached the question in so vague a way. Perhaps I should never have started!


Geoff JB.

As you will have seen from the info posted, it doesn't appear that he had any legitimate children, so no direct descendants.

And there's lots of other stuff about him.


However, as regards the silverplate tray - perhaps we need to look next for descendants of Dr Saville's siblings.
