My Mum, Mary Elizabeth Bowker (nee Johnston) both her parents deceased (her mum when I was 2 YO.I think her Dad was Jim and Mum Elizabeth.
My parents married in Newton Green, Newton, Hyde Cheshire 1950. At time of marriage they lived one street apart (Dad at 18 Busheyfield Close, Mum, 16 Pimlott(?)Close).
I am eldest of nine,6 boys & 3 girls. Our last UK address, 3 Busheyfield Close, Newton, Hyde, Cheshire (did not move far). Emigrated to Perth West Australia when I was 15, arriving 26 March 1966.
Mum (alive and well) has two sisters, Joan and Eileen (both live in Duckinfield Cheshire).
