Re: Laneside Schools

Robert Matcalfe was probably the man referred to as 'Tar Bob' as he owned a works in Church which distilled tar. At some time in the past I did some research on him which I think showed that he married his Yorkshire housekeeper and adopted her children. Retlaw helped me with that, but at the moment I have no time to look for it.
