Resort seeks to trace family from pre-WW2 video

A holiday park is attempting to trace descendants of a Surrey family who stayed at the resort before the World War Two in order to reunite them with a "priceless piece" of their history.

The Hoburne Holiday Park, in Hampshire, has discovered a rare home movie that a family named 'Hasberry' made at the resort in 1937.

The film was discovered for sale on Ebay by a researcher helping create an archive for the park, which has been run by the same family for more than a hundred years.

It is more than 12 minutes long, and it features mother and father Hasberry, two school-age sons and a dog.

The family visited Cowes Week on the Isle of Wight, and there are also pictures of the boats on the water.

There are also "remarkable" images of local landmarks, the park said.

Rosie Kennar, the great-granddaughter of John Burry, who started the business in 1912, said: "We really hope we can track down the people in the film, who we know are the Hasberry family.

"It's quite an unusual surname, and we think there aren't more than about 50 people in the country called that, so we'd really like to hear from anyone who thinks they might be related."
