Hello
Hi there my name is Mary Sidebottom (nee Thornber) I was born in Accrington 1951. My Mums name was Joan Franks Daughter of Francis and Teresa Franks, My Dad was Harold Thornber who worked at Broad Oak until its closure when we had to leave Accrington when I was about 7 . I would love to know if there is anyone on the web site who knew my family during that time. I am related to Franny and Tommy Franks and Anne Franks who were all my mums cousins. Maybe they are members I dont know. My Mum and Dad have now sadly passed away and of course as in a lot of cases its too late to ask them all the questions about my early childhood so I would love to be in touch with anyone who knew them. I am and can get in touch with Anne Tommy and Franny at anytime but would love to know anyone else Thanks
