I AM trying to find some distant cousins. My late uncle, Ellis Whalley was originally from Stoke On Trent before the war.
My mother’s brother was in the Army and I think stationed at Catterick. Elsie Garner/ Whalley was my mother’s name.
When my uncle was demobbed, he married a lady who lived in York between them they had two daughters and lived in Clifton as young children. We did visit on two occasions but that was around the early 1950s.
I would love to get in touch with my two cousins. I am almost sure one of the girls was name Christine Whalley. My auntie’s name was I think Winney; my cousins’ age would now be around 60/65.
They can get in touch with me by phone (07791843243 mob) or 01782 317665.
Terry Colclough, 19, Stranraer Close, Weston Coyney, Stoke On Trent ST36RH
