Cheshire / Re: Chorlton Union Cottage Homes -Styal

I know these are old posts but I am very interested in the photograph of the boys in Styal Homes.  My father and his brother and sister were in Styal 1908 to 1912.  I have contacted Manchester in the past and all they would tell me was where they had been admitted from.  My sister and I would dearly love a photo, especially of my father.  The earliest one of him we have was taken on his wedding day in 1927.  There is a little boy in the group photo who we think has a likeness of him but maybe that is wishful thinking.  Does anyone know where I can write?

I am new to the forum and have an interest in Lostock as my family farmed there for many years.  I looked up William Hollins on the Lancs Parish Register Barton upon Irwell and he is buried at St Catherines Barton upon Irwell.  The church has long gone but the graveyard is still there but very neglected.
