Dave
was you grandmothers maiden name Green?. If it was she was my mothers cousin

yes it was green evelyn.

evelyn what was your mothers name, annie or maybe elsie.

Hi Dave, my mother was Maggie Green(married Bill Collier)
I remember your mum very well.The 2 Green families lived
next door to one another in James Street, Lower Ince.Auntie
Annie lived at No2 James St after she married. My grandad lived at No 16 and your mums brothers Ellis and Ernie lived
at No 18.
So Dave (if you like it or not!!!)I believe this makes us
cousins twice removed.
Small world isn't it

Sorry Dave,my last comment should read 'I remember your GRANDMA very well'.And 'your GRANDMAS brothers Ellis and Ernie'.I must have got too excited finding relatives on Wigan World !!!!! Cheers

Thanks evelyn, i will inform my mother she will be really chuffed.

Evelyn, may i ask you where you live now, and would you be same age as my mother she was born 1940.

Hi Dave,whatever happened to never asking a lady her age.???
However, as I am no lady, yes I am the same age as your mum,
I was born in January 1940.We lived in Ince Green Lane and I left there when I married my husband Don in 1961. We now live in Hindley.

Thanks Evelyn, my mother is trying to find out who you are, she is made up to find family relations from her mothers side,your right sure is a small world.

Hi Dave,I very much doubt that your mum would know about me.
I probably saw your grandmother when she visited her brothers Ellis and Ernie in James Street,Ince.Maybe your mum was with her sometimes but with the passing of time I can't remember.
Anyway we are still related and nobody can take that away from us can they? So Cheers Cousin

David,
I'm Evelyn's brother and I have traced the Green family line back into the 1700's. It may help your Mum to understand the family connections
