She came from Walsall but had settled near Limoges, central France, with her daughter Jackie, a former press officer with Walsall Council. She died at the weekend. Barbara was the daughter of Sarah Lucy Nash (nee Earp) who died aged 102 in 1982. Sarahâs grandfather was the brother of Nicholas Porter Earp whose sons were Wyatt, Virgil and Morgan. According to local legend, the Earps took their saddle-making skills from Walsall and prospered in the United States.
