Hya Marlene, what a lovely photo, brings back memories of Qeen Street. I think a lot of us girls had to go through the ritual of ribbons and bows on special occasions. Was this a walking day? Hope you are all well, give my regards to everyone.

I have Taberners in my Family Tree and it is very likely, from what I do know, that we may be related.

Tricia, there was another family in Queen Street who were Taberners as well. My dad was originally from Enfield Street.

Hi Barbara
My Taberners are back to mid 1800's so far.
My 2 Gt maternal Grandparents were named Ellen and Thomas One census address when Ellen was widowed was Queen St and a son, Thomas , lived in Billinge Road . Maybe they are still related.
