Mulberry. Did you have a paddy in your family?
Hi there, I never realised there was a forum like this and have just happened upon it! My grandfather was Clem Alberici and there were 3 boys, my uncles Clementine, Albert and Bernard and 3 girls - Patricia, Lilian and Marie (my mother) who is now 86. There is my mum and one surviving sister Lilian. I’m Tracey and overall we are quite a large family!There was a large number of Italian families living in the area of Gaskell and Chambers factory now the area is Aston Uni, one family name was Alberici?, there was another family named Tamborelli? which sold piano accordions and gave lessons.
Giacomo Tamboura in 1956 and some fascinating family history. Viv.
Just noticed the tower ballroom use to be called the gay tower ballroom .After all these years I never knew that.Thats why reading all the different threads on bhf you pick up and learn information that members have spent time in gathering and posting is why I enjoy it so MUCH!Italian Santa in 1967.

Hi my grandfather is Clem Alberici my mom is his daughter ann Christine alberici & the other siblings are Clem, Jean , Maureen & David ( only Maureen snd Jean are alive now my mom passed away on April 20th 23 ( she was 85 years old ) , Bernard & Albert came to my wedding in 1983 . My mom used to sing songs in Italian she learnt them from her grandmother of the Changreta clan . I can't quite make out Tracey the link but it's close and very strong my uncle David had managed to put together the whole family tree before he died about 20/25 years ago , he used to occasionally visit my mom & he left a segment of the tree , this was before the internet age . My family name was different when she married my dad , but I kept my moms family name when I emigrated to USA in early 80s .Hi there, I never realised there was a forum like this and have just happened upon it!
