Cheshire Completed Lookup Requests / Re: Henry/Harold Machin
« on: Sunday 30 October 05 11:53 GMT (UK) »
Pre WW11.His address in Crewe was 10 Banks St.I was told that he was a fire watcher in the 2nd WW,so I'm guessing he must have died middle 1950's.
His children were called,Elizebeth(Lizzy),Doris.Lilian(my mother).Son's were Harold and Charles(charlie),Son Harold died when i was young.
I have a strange feeling that he's not my mothers father. Auntie Lizzie was 18yrs older then my mother.She went into service,didn't in those days either go into the workhouse or service if say with child?.If she is her mother then she wed the father,he was Henry Clews.Athough I'm still after Henry/Harold Machin,to me he's the grandfather I've never had/seen.
