John and Ann (nee Murray) Metcalfe

Posted on behalf of John Metcalfe.

Hello There

I wonder if any of your subscribers have any information about my parents John and Ann (nee Murray) Metcalfe. It’s their golden wedding later this month and I was hoping someone might have some memories that I could use.

Dad was born in 1942 and was the son o John and May Metcalfe who owned the bakers at the top of the hill. I know he played cricket and football for the local team and often helped my grandparents in the bakery. He has a sister Patricia.

Mam (also born in 1942) is from Bearpark (Victoria Street) her dad Jack worked in the colliery her sister is Margaret. Their mam died in 1966 and granddad remarried

Any help that you or readers can give would be much appreciated

I think your site is wonderful, wish there was many more like it

Regards

John
