Re: Wadington Street

Thanks for the interest. I feel that Washington Street will be correct and they did move to Stanley Street because I've heard my grandfather talk about it. I believe he didn't live far from Peel Park which suggests he remembered Stanley Street well.
My research has taken me back to Daniel Walsh 1813 to 1870 in Clayton le Moors but not too sure before that. Father could have been John Walsh and mother Alice (no surname) from the late 1700's.
Any assistance would be appreciated.
My great grandfather James died of TB in 1906 and his widow Arabella returned to her native Cumberland and remarried a miner from Aspatria Thomas Hewitson.
Her son my grandfather Walter came with her and later married a Maryport woman Jane Penrice Studholme. My dad was born in Maryport on September 29,1918.
She died when dad was only ten. There's a lot more to the tale but maybe for another time. Thanks to all those who have contributed and Margaret, any help would be appreciated.
Take care everybody
