Cornwall / Re: Families, BAILEY,BLACKBURN, CROOKS, AND GIGGLE/GIGGAL.

I am glad to note that some of the info I supplied was of use. Can you help me, did you  or any member of your family attend  a family wedding in Wakefield in or about 1960. I was about 8 9 or 10. I remember the reception at a Golf Club. I just cannot recall the name of the bride and groom, though "Bell" may be the name. I also remember visiting a cottage at Ryhill on a couple of occasions  I would have been younger then? I think they were cousins of Victor Pool Giggal.

I also had a holiday  in Sunderland, where I stayed for a couple of weeks at their house. Annother family was staying and they had a daughter who was about 7 years old so she would have been born in or about 1961? Are you related?

Yours Ian G
