Would Amand Reford be Valarie Bullaghs mum?

Hi Mark,
That's correct

Referring to the Charlotte Burrows. Have you any info about her family, i.e her parents for example. Been doing my family tree and my Grandmother was Alice Burrows, and came from this area.

Hi Margaret,
I don't think you are a relation.My grandads name was James Reginald and My grandma's name was Martha Jane.
There was quite a few Burrows' in Abram. In Whitley Crescent, Warrington Road ,May avenue and in the "Steel" houses.

Thanks for publishing the photo. My mother, Cathie Marsden, is there (as indicated in your caption), and I'm pleased to learn the identities of the others in the photo, whom I recall my mother mentioning. Thanks again.
