Winnie and others.. Many thanks!
So the Alfred Street James Riley was my ??great uncle.

Some years ago working on my family tree. Wigan Library gave me a lot of info.

They said that the James Riley who married Margaret was an engineer and the older one a collier. Hence the house?
The house passed to Uncle Leonard and family. Of the nine children Margaret gave birth to only three survived to adulthood. My mother, Margaret, Leonard and Arthur. We used to visit both families; Leonard at Prospect House and Arthur on a council estate. TB took the others.
Which colliery?
Is there in the UK a Land Registry as there is over here?

Fascinating and nearly all the jigsaw pieces in place. Wondering where they lived at first .

Oh we visited Alfred Street often. Annie and Finlay Webster
