An article in the Parish Magazine states:
Walter Hall Grantham may not be a name which everyone recognises immediately but many people will know "Dick" Grantham, the removal man who lives in South Street, opposite the end of Oakdene. Mr. Grantham and his family have been carriers and removers in Cottingham for many years, and people will know Dick Grantham as the remover who does the job well, and at an exceptionally low price. He came to be called "Dick" after being baptised Walter Hall because his father's name was Walter, as those who remember the days of horse drawn rullies will know from the sign "W. W. Grantham", which the family's vehicles bore for years, and to avoid confusion his family called the younger Walter "Dick". The name stuck and most people think that is his real name. Dick Grantham was born in 1910, in the house in which he and his wife now live, into a family of four children.- he has two sisters, and had an elder brother. He has never moved from the house, nor done any other job other than removals and carrying. His two sisters live away from Cottingham and his elder brother was tragically killed in a road accident in Hull Road by a motor cycle. The accident affected his mother deeply, and Mr Grantham remembers that she was never the same after it. This happened while they were on the job, but it didn't end the business.
