My great Grandfather, Ralph Unsworth, married Frances Alice Davidson from Morris Row Scholes in St Marks Newtown in 1894. Frances moved to Scotland with their children in 1910, without Ralph. Our family think that he had died, but I can't trace his death. They lived in Bridgewater Street, Newtown and then Poolstock. Ralph's father was James Unsworth. Ralph was a coal miner. Can anyone help?

Re previous post, that doesn't read very wells can have it put on their medical records at their GP's. This should then flag up each time you visit and hopefully prompting questions around your caring role, especially if it could be impacting on your wellbeing. They can also receive the flu vac, free of charge.

Want to say thank you to Jo-Ann for posting our information on communication page. Also add to your reply re road tax reduction. Attendence Allowance does not have a mobility component, therefore no road tax reduction.
Do Carers know they can have that fact putting on their GP records? Ring Carer's Centre for more information

Many thanks for listing of cemetery details for Wigan. We are endeavoring to find information on the Percy family but there appears to be quite a few of them! Would anyone have information of interest relating to Cornelius McLeod Percy. Greetings from Australia.
