Hello Carol
Yes Ok I would like to find out more about the Gaskell side of the family. Do you have any pictures of Vera Jane? I remember Bob Gaskell quite well, he lived just off Wigan Lane. Oswald Gaskell was Steward at Up Holland Conservative club for a number of years. I do have some photos that may be of interest to you. George William Ishmael had 3 sons and 2 daughters. Richard (my father) had the milk business in Richmond Hill Pemberton, Bill was the farmer at gathurst (now retired) the farm is now run by his son David and family. John Ishmael who now lives in Knutsford. Margaret (Peggy) worked in the milk business delivering milk with a horse and cart, in Pemberton and Orrell. Betty Ishmael was a school teacher, and then Head mistress at a school in Ashton.
Carol you have also been in touch with my daughter Catherine?
Bye for now
Derek
