The Find My Past website now has the listings of the shareholders of the GWR. There is one name of interest to us; Zelie Virginie Anne Luckraft is listed as a shareholder. The records show that her father, Alfred Luckraft (see Naval tree on our website) was her executor, and there was a change of ownership of the shares as a result of her death on 4 August 1871 in Southsea, Hampshire.
The Lucraft/Luckraft One name study has been running since 1974, when I first started looking for my father's forebears. It now includes all the variants world-wide, including Lovecraft, Luccraft, Luckcraft, Loucraft, and others. Many of the articles in this blog are taken from past issues of the Luc(k)raft Newsletter.
