Harold Heslop (1901 -?)
« on: Sunday 08 July 12 05:41 BST (UK) »
Looking for information on Harold Heslop? Ran away from home when his father remarried. He was arrested by police in Liverpool for vandalising a railway carriage and sent back to County Durham and sent to Sedgefield Mental Hospital. Believe he remained there until he died. Would welcome any information on his death & burial!!!!
Heslops from N.Yorks. Co.Durham. Northumberland.    Briddicks from Co. Durham. Cleverley / Mitchell from E.Sussex. Duggans from Cork. McSorleys from 'Derry.

There are other postings on genealogical sites that are saying it was Harold's brother Hector who was responsible for vandalizing the railway carriage in Liverpool. Who were the parents of Harold?

Harold Heslop bn 1898 and died 1983 is famous for the novels he wrote which were firmly set in the mining community he had grown up in. Nine boxes of his papers are held at Palace Green Library Durham.
