I lived in Darnall for a while and took many photographs - one day I went into the Rose and Crown and someone said to me - "take his picture, he's just read his obituary in the Star" I did but it was 1976 and my notes have gone astray - If my memory is correct he was called 'Albert' - if anyone knows who he was and anything about him I would be greatly obliged .
