Hi Pingu
I don't know if this will help any but there were American soldiers stationed at Bateman School, Park Lane in Knypersley. This would have been about 1945. More recently Bateman School became Park Middle School.
I have no idea where you could get any more information though.

To add to the above my mum found some more info last night.
Some GI's were stationed at Fairhaven in Knypersley. Others were stationed in the Fustian (Velvet cutting) Mill and the Miners Welfare Building both in Biddulph Moor.
This she found this in a book called 'Biddulph Moor Within living Memory' by B Ridgeway
