Albert William Webb

Albert William Webb with his steamroller: Albert was the husband of my great aunt Eva Wass. There was a cab on the back which they lived in while he was working on the roads, Eva travelled with him and their son William was nearly born in the cab until a kind person took pity on Eva and took her into her house to give birth. I believe Albert was one of the workers to tarmac the A1. Albert was born in Worcestershire and Eva was born in Ripon in the West Riding of Yorkshire.
