Not a local guy. He comes from Manchester.
His sister moved to Church, presumably because of her husband's job (police). Think she still lives in the area.

Hi,
I al;ways thought Davy Jones (Monkees) was from Longsight or Gorton in Manchester.
I think he went to my primary school in Longsight for a couple of years before going to a jockey training school.

your probably correct charlie,it was his sister helen or hazel=think she was called hazel,who my girlfriend of the time used to babysit for she probably married a local bloke,as she was living here i assumed at the time they were from here,but i bow to your first hand knowledge thanks.
