A PROUD family are celebrating the arrival of a great-great-grandson.

Little Lincoln was born on Thursday, October 6, to parents Nathan and Kirsty Hodgetts and is the first great-great-grandchild for Mabel Shellam, aged 102.

Danielle Hodgetts, Nathan’s sister, said the arrival meant there were now five living generations of the family which has its roots in Worcester. Mrs Shellam lives in Powick.

Danielle said: “It’s her first great great grandchild so she was really very excited.

“We’re a very close family so it was nice for her to be able to see him.”

Lincoln was born at 10.59pm weighing 5lbs 9oz.
