I remember Marjory and her Mum and Dad and Grandma.Marion used to come into my Mum and Dad's shop (Hurst's) which was across from the Wigan Works offices on Manchester Road. I think this photo might be taken at the back of those offices because Marion and her sister used to clean there.There is a lovely photo of Marjory at the Empress Hall, Wigan on this site as well.

Thanks all for the comments!
Hello Elizabeth, yes I uploaded the one at Empress Ball a few years ago! Hoping to get a few more uploaded soon. My gran is looking through all the old photos that belonged to her sister, Joyce who sadly passed away 2 weeks ago.

Thanks Patrick. So sorry to hear about Joyce, I only found out last night that she had passed away when I was looking something up on 'WiganToday' and saw the obituary for her.Another lovely lady from a warm friendly family.Please give your Grandma my regards.
