I am John Mather . I don't seem to be able to send messages. Your surname must begin with the letter C though. Sue was trying to get in touch, she must have mislaid my letter of November 2009.

My Grandad Wilf, and my Grandma lived at number 59. My dad was called John ( but known as Jack) and my Aunty Louie and Auntie Freda lived there as well. If Sue wants to get in touch my Email address is [email protected]. [email protected] I didn't want to give that out, but the private message function doesn't seem to work on this batphone. P.S. I have done a family tree for Sue.

 

Keep smiling - John.

:help:Sue is the grandaughter of my Grandad's brother . I am the Grandson of Wilf Mather. Billy was the other brother of my Grandad. He ran a shop in Ranskill Road which he bought with the compensation that he got from saving some fellow miners by shoving a pit prop that he pit prop into a runaway wagon into the rails . Trouble was that although saved the lads it came off the rails and took his leg off. Sue's gran H

dad, Jack, was the third brother.

 

Hence Sue is the grandaughter of my great uncle Jack, who had a tash like Jimmy Edwards.Great uncle Billy ( the bloke with the wooden leg who owned the shop) and great uncle Jack, with the tash, both died in about 1958/9.
