The answer is yes and no. I knew Dick ( and greatlyt admiorted him,) when I worked at Huncoat Pit 1957. He is related to my uncle Bert ,now in his mid-late 80s and still wick but I don't know how. I vaguely remember that Dick had a brother at Hincoat. Bert & my aunt Claire had a daughter Valerie, wjhio I am in touch with. They lived in Bright St nerar Moor end school. She went to Rhyddings.
