Fairfield Folk traces
the history of the Matthews family from the early 19th
Century to today. The history of 'travellers' is handed
down from generation to generation through the
traditional method of 'say'. Every important, amusing or
significant event is turned into a story and is
faithfully repeated with great accuracy for perhaps
hundreds of years. In carrying out her research, Frances
has unearthed a wealth of original photographs of the
Matthews family; this book traces their way of life, the
changes and development of the fairground.
