I HAVE just recently found your web site and would like to thank you for this link to my roots.
I was saddened to hear of the death of Miss Mary Ripley who was once my teacher at Windleshaw RC Primary School. I remember her well for her patience and she needed it as she taught singing to 42 unruly infants.
I shall certainly bookmark this site and visit it often.
