Re: Mclean family

Hello Bob, She would be my Aunt in 1955 she would have been around 14 or 15 years old I think.

Re: Mclean family

Flashy/Lily,

As far as I know all of the McLeans originating from Accrington/Church/Ossy area in the last 30 years all descend from the same family - Archie and Mary, who came to Accrington from Paisley (Glasgow) via Tottenham (London). If you want any information on them, let me know and I'll let you have what I've got.

Ian
