Just a query - did either of the Winstanleys live in Birkett Street in the 1950's?

Ronnie White used to be a boilermaker at Leyland Motors, I worked with him for many years. I think he is still around and lives in leyland,

Ronnie White is still around and does live in Leyland. Used to see him at Central Park a lot and he calls my mother occasionally. Peter Winstanley may have lived in Birkett Street or could have been Leader St. Eric lived in Lorne St then moved to Roundhaouse Ave Whelley until he passed away some years ago. His wife Olga still lives there.
