I may be a bit late with this reply I only recently discovered this forum . I think the family you refer to was the wards , they lived I think in the same yard as Jimmy Peacock or at least close by . The family were the Wards , I remember Alf , Fred , Ray , Jackie & Clifford

there was an older brother who moved away but I can`t recall his name . Fred & Alf married two of my moms sisters ( Mabel & Joyce ) , Fred , Alf & Clifford have all died I don`t know about the others , Freds wife is still alive & his children & grand children all live in the Manor area . Alfs daughter lives in mosborough & he has a son in Scotland .

My father and grandparents lived at the bottom corner house on Henry St as caretakers, this would be before/during the war. My father's car was destroyed by a German bomb nearby, I think it was from the same stick of bombs that destroyed St Philip's Church.
