Hello cousin Ray,
Helen here. Vera's(your Dad's sister) youngest,
Great that you are in touch with us all, as Gerry says we are all Martha's family. It was an"epic," journey from Wallasey to Lydiate/Maghull, in those days a long way.I always remember when I was little Uncle Ted coming over to visit and knowing he had lots of sons and ONE daughter.I think I remember Barry coming with him.Glad to hear about your Dad,I think he actually came see me at this house once.What was the name of the band you were in?There is definitely music in our family,one of my sons plays guitar quite well, the other is into music tech and writes stuff and plays a bit of guitar/piano-I learnt the piano aged 40!!! My brother Jim's daughter's are very musical and all play piano to a high standard,one is in Ireland and plays fiddle in a music group(in pubs!!!).Love to see any other photos you have ,the ones you have posted are great.keep in touch -cousin Helen

  1. Hi Helen
    Nice to hear from You, The band I was in was Beano
    Sadly we never made the big time despite doing TOTP, but we had a few hits in Italy. If you go to You Tube and put in Beano Candy Baby you will hear a few of our records. Its amazing how many of Grans family love to play music.
    Ray
