I just remembered that the Accrington Library gave me a city map. Looked it up and it is still there.. When over I will see if I can back track from the owners now to 1911. Will take time but may be worth it. Some houses did stay in families for a long time.

Keith.

I had a younger brother named Harold Scholes. (Rochdale). Was quite well known in the Motorcycle Racing Circ. Specially in Spain and Germany. Sad to say but he got killed while racing at Brands Hatch back in 1962. (Gosh, does not seem that long). how time flies.

The Harold Scholes above is still alive, I was for many years a friend of his brother in law, sadly recently deceased. I worked with both Harold and his older brother Bert who also lived in Huncoat, whilst at the Redac brickyard, his wife Olive recently celebrated her eightieth birthday. Yours Taddy
