Christine do you know anything about Tom Calderbank? who was he married to and what year was this pic taken.
I am a Calderbank and trying to find Calderbank history.
Thanks Jm

Is this the young James who had two sons,David & Chris' who both became British motor cycle Grass-Track Champions and lived at Writington. I hope you can let me know. Eric Turner

I am also trying to trace a Tom Calderbank, married Alice Lomax in 1933. A long shot but who knows.

Tom Calderbank was my dad married to Abigail Gertrude Baybutt sister of Jimmy who had 2 sons David & Chris

Christine
did your dads family have connections with Scholes/Whelly?

My grandad Elias was born 19 April 1875 at 92 Gt George St Wigan. My father and his brothers & sister were born in Woodhouse Lane.

Hi Christine
just trying to put names with names
. My great granfather was Samuel Calderbank b 1872 his Father was Thomas lived in Scholes/Whelly, had a shop,just wondering if Thomas had a brother who was your Great grandfather? so that would mean Samuel and your granfather were cousins{i think}
regards Jm

My Grandfather Elias had brothers Thomas 1871 Joseph 1873 and sister Margaret 1880. His father Joseph born 1850.

Jimmy Baybutt, father of David & Chris' was a member of Hindley Motor Cycle & Light Car Club in the '60 & 70s and both lads rode Grass Track races as members of our Club and both became British Champions. Last time I saw Jimmy he was living at Wrightington and had a large Space Ship looking building on his front garden.
