Hi Sam-Ann,

Thank you - would they have run alongside what is now known as Bonemill Lane?  If so, does it make sense to you that nan could have run across the road to biddick Lane? I believe Her granny hall lived at the top there.  There are quite a lot of halls so I am just trying to piece together the stories I was told with information I am finding.

Is the old welfare the community association building?

Many thanks for your help.

Best
Nathan

Hello,

I appreciate that this forum has not been active for a while, but I am hoping that some of you are still watching or will be notified.

I am trying to find out more information about Verdun Terrace (does it still exist)?  My Nan was born there and I am planning to come up and visit with my Aunt (who is visiting from overseas).

Also, my Nan's father was a Hall - I believe he was born on Biddick Lane - but he died when she was three (and so did her older sister) from a mining accident.  I cannot seem to find any records of him, except on my Nan's birth certificate and I am eager to try and trace back that part of the family.  He does not appear to be on any of the mining websites as it was not from a disaster.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks,
Nathan
