I am currently researching John Mannion and I am struggling to find any more information on him. Here is what I know so far.
Born - 6th Oct 1912, Oswaldtwistle, Lancashire, England.
Married Teresa Mawn, 27th March 1948 in Middlewich, Cheshire.
John and Teresa had two daughters one being Maureen Mannion.
I am unsure of John's death date but I believe it to be around 2007.
Johns parents were Dennis Mannion and Elizabeth Ironfield.
Apparently John was in the military but I can't seem to find any documentation of this.
I believe I have found him in 1939 in Hampshire.

Hi,
Please note that RootsChat has a strict 'no living persons' policy, so you should edit your post and remove the names of John's daughters if they are still alive.
John's death registration and his headstone confirm that he died in 2007:

The 1939 register entry has the correct birthdate, so it seems likely that it is correct.
