My mum went to Page hall when her father died early 1900. I have photos of her there and also her birthday diary which contains names of pupils and teachers, does anyone else have contacts in the family around 1900-1910?

 

Sent you a private message.

Hi Maureen, Yes i'm still about, what is it your trying to find.

I'm not sure now if Connie was in in No19 house but it's many many

years ago. Did i ever tell you i knew Connie's brother Ronald Bolton

he was in No2 house.

Just come to me there was a Michael he was in No6 house with me

and the other brother was Kenneth Bolton he was in No3.

Your's Brian.
