This photo would have been taken about 1920 in Gathurst. It shows from the left, my mother Agnes Bryson aged about 12, her older brother Tom standing next to her & on the end her younger brother George. My grandparents, Thomas & Mary Bryson came to Wigan from Hamilton in Lanarkshire. They lived in Gathurst Lane & then later in St Clements Rd, Wigan. They lived in Wigan for the rest of their lives. The connection with Wigan was the coal mining industry.
