Peter Hurbert Spencer Harris OR 1941 to 1948
I did not attend Rendcomb but my grandfather Peter Hurbert Spencer Harris did, and I am looking for any of his old class mates. He was born in 1930 so I have guessed the dates. Please if anyone knew him may they contact me. Sadly Peter died in a car crash in 1964.

Williams and Mealing Families
I have no connection with Rendcomb College, but my grandfather came from Rendcomb and his father Charles Williams was a servant at Rendcomb when it was a private house. I have recently discovered that another relative, William Mealing, committed a murder in Rendcomb while of unsound mind. I would like to hear from anyone who may have information about the Williams or Mealing families.
