Newton Heath
« on: 20:18:15, 29/09/20 »
Hi all
Was wondering if anyone can help me!!!
Am looking for anyone who remembers a coal man named Bill around 1964 delivering round the newton Heath area, he use to go in toms transport cafe where my mum worked.
The reason I’m asking is I recently found out that I have a half sister on ancestry
Any information would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks Paul.

As a kid From newton heath I remember a coalMan called Mr jones ,in fact I went to school with his daughter Margaret , might be coincidence though ,Also walmsley, booth , and Bill Darlington were other coal men who delivered in newton heath and surrounding areas , I’ll try to think of some  others,

They've just pulled a bomb out of the Rochdale canal off Grimshaw lane, surely it's not been left there by the Luftwaffe.........strange.  :-\
