message for Ivan

I am putting this message on here for Ivan because I am having difficulty posting to the comments.

Thank you for your comment Ivan. Earlier on in the year I visited your website many times when I was researching the Hobson family in Whitfield and I was most impressed. The map also helped me as I do not know Glossop very well.

I asked mum about Bert Turner, he came from an old Glossopian family and was involved with the parish church in Old Glossop. He later became the caretaker at the Duke of Norfolk school. My mum also knew of the Bert Turner you referred to, and reminded me that I have a photo of him with my dad and a steam train. (I have not learnt how to put pictures on here yet, I am waiting for my daughter to teach me.) My mum would be interested to know what part of Glossop you grew up in, she lived opposite Manor park in Old Glossop and was born in 1934.
