From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Lloyd family of Birmingham was a prominent Welsh Quaker family who migrated in the seventeenth century to Birmingham, England, from Dolobran Hall near Meifod, Powys (previously in Montgomeryshire),[1] Wales. The family were involved in manufacturing and in the establishment of Lloyds Bank.[2] The principal residence of the senior branch of the Birmingham family was Farm, Bordesley.

At the outbreak of the First World War Gertrude and John Henry Lloyd had four sons of military age:[3]
