Thanks to Peter and Hindle for their time putting names to faces.

I found your website after seeing a photo in the Bolton News. My father's cousin was Miss Edna Booth who worshipped at St Mark's.She ran a bakery and grocery shop on Fletcher Street which was started by her parents, Joe & Polly Booth.She used to invite us for Sermon's Sundays and Harvest Festivals and I remember going to a show in the 1950's put on in the church hall. I have seen her photo on two pictures on your website.

Hi,
Just been made aware of your site by my sister Joy Hollick nee Openshaw.
On photo CH055 second row standing behind the un-named boy is our great aunt Margaret Openshaw. She was Edna Booth's aunt who is standing behind her. Margaret Openshaw had no connection with St Mark's and would only have been there as a guest going on the outing with Edna Booth.
