i’m trying to trace the descendants of a family who lived in the Blackburn or Bolton area during the 1930s.
The husband was Matthew Leyland Sharples and his wife was Mary Louisa Newsham. They had a daughter called Monica.
I wonder if any readers are related to these people. If so, I would be interested to hear from them.
