Re: Trying to find Cousin
There was a Greenhalgh that had a shop in Infant St, formerly a Pawn Shop and then a carpet/lino shop through the '50/'60s She was my Mother's aunt. They had two daughters Ada King, and Clemmie Riley - they all lived at 25(?) Manchester Rd. Sorry, no further information than that

That interests me as my grandfather was station master at Church & Oswaldtwistle from 1914 to about 1929. My mother grew up there. When was Levi Greenhalgh there?

The answer to your question is NO! Early 60,s & not pigeon chested.
I did contact him and he said he would get in touch, but no reply as yet.
