Another enquiry about an Accyweb member

At one time Jim Proctor posted on Accrington Web, but he hasn’t done so for quite a while. Jim’s grandmother married my husband’s great-grandfather (Harper Westell) when Jim was a little lad, and he was able to give some interesting information about the family via Accyweb. They all lived at Peel Arm Cottage for a while. My husband had not known of any of this until Jim wrote about it.

Does anyone know anything about Jim these days? I might send him a pm if no-one knows how he is going on. Jim is about 90 now.

Re: Another enquiry about an Accyweb member

Taddy, thank you for that but to be honest I have as much information as I need about the cottage. I was just concerned about Jim as he hasn’t been on Accyweb for ages now and I wondered if anyone knew if he was ok. Thank you for your interest though, sorry if my post was a bit misleading. Stay safe also.

Re: Another enquiry about an Accyweb member

I did notice when I googled "Peel Arm Cottage", that it mentioned a Jim Proctor who was an old pupil at Accrington Grammer School, Bob Dobson one of Accy Webs members is in touch with a lot of Grammer school old boys maybe he can help if you send him a P.M.
Regards, Taddy.

Re: Another enquiry about an Accyweb member

That’s a good idea, Taddy. As a matter-of-fact Bob and I do correspond from time-to-time so I will email him now. Thanks for the suggestion.
