I was wondering if Trevor Dallimore, had a couple of relations, named Dallimore, that worked at the Maypole Colliery, in the late forties, early fifties. I believe one, or maybe both, were electricians.

I would lay odds that Trevor definitely had some relations called Dallimore :D

Message to Ruth Carrick nee Dallimore
Researching our family tree, spotted your comment about your dad, my uncle Clifford. I'm your cousin Dennis son of Annie (dallimore) and Jim Clare. Often wondered about family not seen for years.
