Mid-1950s, boy’s club at the Zion Methodist Church in Liverpool Road. The adults in the photo, on the left, Gordon Milner, and on the right, Rev A Revell, the minister at that time. Middle row on right-hand side is Ray Evans(?).

Gordon Milner and Beatrice Latham lived next door to us in Rivington Drive, Upholland, in 1960.

ArthurP, could the boy's name on the right of the third row be Roy as opposed to Ray Evans. As a child in the 1950's two or three times our family went on holiday with family friends, who were related to the Evans's,who lived in that area, and the boys family came with us also. The boy looks familiar to me. I could be wrong but just inquiring.
