Welcome to my blog - good day to you all

Do come on in and take a walk into the past.

This is a record of family and places from my family tree. Researching my family tree is an ongoing project with lots of brick walls to knock down.

Names included in my family tree are: Allsop(p), Boyes, Crooks, Dobson, Richmond, Wood.

I hope that maybe someone out there is researching the same tree as myself and that we can be of help to each other - so if you recognise anyone/anything please get in touch it would be great to hear from you.

Do also take a look at my others blogs, thanks.


Enjoy.

Nelson Village Leek Show 19 September 1959

This is a photo taken in the Village Hall opposite the Nelson Miners' Welfare Club on Leek Show Day.

On the 2nd right is my Uncle Bill Allsopp, who was then Secretary of the Club. I think the chap on the extreme left is Joe Twist. The chap on the extreme right also looks familiar to me but I am going to have to ask my old school friend his name and whether she remembers the other two blokes in the photo.
