John , if you are still visiting the Accy Web , do you mean Fred Bentley? He had a twin brother , Harry. They lived on Blackburn Rd just before you reach where the old Grammar School was.
Fred taught at Holy Family - Mount Carmel. He was keen on all sports. He once took a group abroad for a skiing holiday and came back with a broken leg.
He would have been 63 now . He died last year , sadly unable to enjoy the retirement he was about to begin.

The Miss Birch , often mentioned on this thread , became Mrs Ormerod after her retirement . I think that will surprise many.
