Google the Warrington Guardian for your info. Sure they will be interested.

Mannion is quite a common name in warrington (usually called "Wilf" after the old footballer.


Happy days

Our local paper runs many a story about unknown photographs of people and places possibly local to the area. I would say getting in touch with a Warrington paper would be a positive move.jle

Researching:
Mellors of Fulstone- Haighs of Fulstone- Haighs of Horbury -Fowlers of Sheffield -Ashton/Acomb of Keighley-Broadheads of Mearhouse-Nixons of Bradfield- Hopwood of Dewsbury and Elland-Procter/Proctors of Malham

I have been sent six photo's from a relative in America and wonder how we can identify the people, I have a suspicion they are members of a Man(n)ion family because my grt Uncle and his family went to USA in 1881and his wife Catherine nee Man(n)ion was born St Helens info from census. There are quite a number with this name in records so wondered if a Warrington newspaper maybe my port of call.

Catherines parents Martin Manion and Winifred nee Cogan

Any suggestions appreciated.
Thanks

Ooops adj mothers name should have been Winifred Cogan not Bridget.
