lost family and friends - At the family history day (excellent event!) I bought a WHHC 2013 calendar, and in the November picture is a girl called Ann Walls, who must be the Ann Walls I met in 1968, once in Oxford, once in Leeds. She was probably taught by my dad's cousin "young" Wilf Potts. Does anyone out there know what became of either of them? Or anything about Wilf's (and my dad's) uncle Tom and his daughters, who also lived in Thornley? Or even Tom's father John William Potts (1868-1948) who lived at 10 Third Street, Wheatley Hill in 1911, later in Thornley? Please get in touch!... Collapse
