    Hi Lisaman I have details of Heaton tree going back 5 more generations from Richard (1755-1839). Also have info on Maria's other sister Kaziah. She married into money (John Yates - who's company made spoons, etc) and lived in Chester Road, Boldmere. Would be good to compare notes

    Printer's Compositor

    Hi Lorraine. I was a printer at James Upton starting in 1973 and worked for them until 2000. I remember the name "Ernie Reader". Would be great if you could post a copy of the picture you mention.
