Hello Val, thank you so very much. I discussed it further with my mum and she thinks it may have been a different place named Heaton, but she isn’t certain. Gladys later married Clement Augustus Fry in 1940. I have records that Elsie Hall married a Tom Chapman and Lillian Hall married name unknown. I believe the young boy Thomas may have died around age one, however, this is just from family discussions with no absolutes. Thanks again

Hi Kerry-lee, I have really struggled looking for the Hall family, there were not that may in the area around 1900-1911 & none that I could find called Gladys which may have been a middle name? I assume she married if so what was her married name as it may be possible to work back from there? They may have come from out of the area. Please let me know what other info you have & I will have another look. Val

Hello, I am following up a potential lead that my Grandmother (Gladys Hall, born 1908) lived in a poor area named Heaton Place with 7 siblings, 5 of which reportedly died (I believe some of the siblings were called Elsie, Lillian and Thomas). I believe but am not certain at this point her parents were named Mary Ann Lealand and Thomas Hall. Have you come across any mention of these names as residents? I am sorry it is so vague, I don’t have a lot of detail of my family history and trying to piece together what I can, Thank you In advance.

Thank-you for the kind remarks, I have done some further research on Harry & have up-dated the site. I hope that you find it interesting. I will contact you separately with some further information. If you know any other descendants of any of the other men please point them in the sites direction. Val.
