Florence had two sisters, Annie who married David Doran and had one daaghter Eileen. They ran The White Swan pub in Lower Ince. Nellie who married Tom Ellison and lived in Stanley St and had one daughter Joan. Florence also had two brothers John who married Mary and lived in Linney St all his life and had three children, Harry, Marion and Joyce. Joe Molyneux married Nellie and moved to Diccinson Lane Wethoughton. They had a number of children.
Jane was the mother and her father was Henry John Molyneux (my Gt Grandparents). Florence married Jack Critchley in 1924 and had one daughter Doreen, my mother, who married Alan Hankin in 1947. They lived in Golborne St, Scholes until the area was tragically demolished in the late 60s. We moved out in 1955 to live in Scholefield Lane when I was seven.
