wow - you're discovering some great fragments of history - keep up the good work 

best wishes

That's really lovely of you to say. Thank you.

If I come across anything else, I'll be sure to add it to this thread.

Oh, the funeral notice I added; It mentions a Mary McGrail. I'm wondering if that's my nana's friend. I think it might be.

I've attached a photo of my nana and her girlfriends taken sometime in the late 1930's, I think. My nana is second from the left, Mary is on the far right.

Another funeral notice where Frank and Margaret POWELL are mourners.

Newton & Earlestown Guardian, 03/03/1950.

Frank is described as the brother of the person who has died, Mr. J. NAYLOR.

It looks like we have Frank's funeral notice here.

Newton & Earlestown Guardian, Friday 5th October 1951.

I'm wondering if Mary McGrail is the daughter of Joseph and Mary McGrail nee Wilson born c1922 and died c2003

Thank you for posting the obituary for James Naylor - I now know where he was buried 

Thanks for posting the obituary for Frank Powell too 

[Rowan Tree]

You're very welcome.

I'm sorry I don't know who Mary's parents were. If I find out, I'll let you know.
