Wigan Album

Was this the trip to North York moors?(Ingleborough?)when the mountain rescue team was called out? June Christie was in that group and I understand it made the national news. If memory serves after rescue the group spent the night in a school before being returned to the right side of the Pennines.

No,it was Lancashire,cant remember where.It was a day trip,and only lost for a few hours

I have a similar photo. It was taken around Belmont/Rivington moors. I am in the middle of the
back row. Irene Pat is also on this photo 2nd from the right on the row below.

Back Row. L to R ? Norma Farrell, Ruth Brindle, Margery Lyon, Kathlyn Wilson,Next 2 ? Eileen Shaw. Next Row Gladys Bailey, Betty Wadsworth, ? June Pearson, Gladys Grundy, Pat Cooksey, ? Teacher Miss Hague.

Many thanks, Ruth. I had looked at the picture but wouldn't have known it was Pat.

I think the girl next to Betty Wadsworth is Barbara Lowe from Dower St.

It was Ethel Gorner

Ruth, looking closely at Pat, I am amazed she is the image of her daughter Allison, my niece, who I have always felt looked like her Dad's side of our family. I can see now that Allison is like her Mum.

Irene - Will Alison be able to see the photo of her mum?
It would be nice if she could. All the best for 2013.

Hello Ruth, I texted Allison yesterday and told her how to find the photo. She said she would look it up as soon as she could, but I haven't heard from her since. I'm sure she will get back to me soon.
