HiSomeone mentioned how did they move house so quickly.I remember moving house when I was 8 in the 1950's.We moved about a quarter of a mile away. My Dad and Uncle and two older brothers carried, the settee, 2 charis, bed frames, mattrasses, sideboard, few clothes sheets and books.That was that in those days. No one had much to put in their houses so there wasnt much to carry. We didnt do a flit as they say but I remember a few fliting at night time and they were gone in the morning and that happened even in the 50's. Good education in history on this site.

Still having trouble with thephotos but I will persevere !No time for grave hunting today and we are away from Saturday untilMonday night - will start again Tuesday.In the true light of day last nights cunning plan was not really that good so the thinking cap will be in place for a few days.

Thanks a lot Chris, I must have been in BAOR when uncle Bill was buried, missed it. Dogduke, your mam maybe did, William was horsekeeper at Rock red brickyard in 1911 and uncles George and Bill were both terracotta pressers at Burmantofts, thanks again folks and forgive my idle opportunism in using this thread.
