About myself
I am an old resident of Accrington as a boy in the 1940's. We (parents, two sisters) lived in Carter Street where we had a grocer's shop- then in St James St (No 22?)
I was educated at Oswaldtwistle -and Edge End when we lived in Nelson before Accrington. Migrated to Australia in 1951. My name is Trevor Cowell- anyone there remembers? |

Re: About myself
Hello Trevor, welcome to AccyWeb. You left for Australia before I was born. Hope you find someone here who remembers you and your family.

Re: About myself
Welcome Trevor - we have a few expats in Oz who post here.
I was born in 40s too but your name doesn't ring a bell. Which Ossy primary school did you go to?
