My Dad says he worked for Wilkinson's dairy of 264 Walton Breck Road in 1955/56. A 1938 directory has Thomas Matthew Wilkinson, Cowkeeper in residence. My Dad delivered milk around Anfield on his bike.

Re:attachment of photos I tried to do this once regarding another topic , but no success I'm afraid. Any suggestions anyone as it sounds like there's a whole bank of "cowkeeper" photos waiting to be compiled on this topic.

Ok - so just hit reply - click on the blue writing at the end that says 'attach a photograph or image (and other options).. browse to the file, select it and then post... Maybe it is like PM and you need to have posted a few times before you can see that option..

I think the problem for me is the size of my digital photos; all are in colour and all are much bigger ( 3000+KB ) than the maximum attachment size allowed ( 500 KB ).

Dad doesn't know he was always in and out of there. There was about half a dozen kids working for them. They used trolleys to deliver the milk. My Dad did what he calls the outskirts so he was the only one on a bike.
