Hi I am looking for information on a Albert Gregson born 1904 and died 1974. There is a possible connection to an Edward Gregson who won a swimming certificate in school in 1952, I have forgotten name of school. Albert was living with a lady called Elizabeth White maiden name Roby. There is a wedding album taken by a photographer in Birkenhead which I believe belongs to Albert#s family and I would like to return it to them. Many thanks Norma

I moved to Australia in Sept 2005, and haven't been back yet; I can't wait to come see what's changed - and what hasn't!
