Additional Information:

Joy Greathead was born in a nearby village, married a South African farmer in 1967 and emigrated there. They have 3 married children.

The Greathead family have an interesting background:

In 1789 Henry Greathead (ancestor) 'invented' the lifeboat.

In 1820 the Greatheads were amongst the first British settlers to South Africa.

In 1874 James Greathead (great uncle) patented the 'Greathead Shield'. A tunnelling device that though improved upon is still used today. A statue was erected of him in London in 1994. Rather late posthumous recognition; no doubt triggered by the Channel tunnel construction.

Thomas Rivers, Joy's husband's (Sim) great great grandfather was the famous and prolific Victorian nurseryman of the Rivers Nursery (established in 1730 and sold by the family in 1985). His plant breeding and development resulted in the 'early rivers' nectarines, plums, cherries, peaches and most famous of all, the conference pear. He also introduced the late Valencia orange into California USA.

Confidential Independent Professional Valuations for Insurance, Auction Sale, Probate or Family Division

In Great Britain, a crime is committed every six seconds, the vast majority of which are burglaries. It is one of the largest growth industries in this country.

Naturally you have insured the contents of your home, but are you adequately covered? Are you certain that you have accurately assessed the replacement value of your house contents - including carpets, furniture, electrical goods and clothing, and especially antiques, jewellery and works of art?

Are you aware that it is your responsibility to establish the current value of your possessions? In the event of a claim, insurance companies require both accurate values and proof of ownership for lost or damaged items. Are you expert enough to undertake an inventory and valuation of your home?

How would you establish the value of an inherited painting, or an item of porcelain bought years ago? Think how you would feel if the compensation you received was well below today's market value - a common occurrence.

Eliminate these worries and protect your investments by letting John Weallans Fine Arts Valuation & Appraisal be your experts.

Insurance companies always protect their own interests - protect yours by having a professional valuation.
