Trying to build up family tree: Grandad Joseph Edwin Watson - train driver/Coniston in 1950's then moved to Barrow. Born Congleton or Ingleton, can never remember which. Sisters Gladys, Annie (nearly 100)Brother John. Grandmother - nee Ashburner Cleator Moor, Cumbria Sisters Alice & Helen (Nellie) Brother Willie. Her Mum was Catherine (nee Sumpton) and Thomson is another other family name on her side. Mining connections in west cumbria - cleator/cleator moor. Got some details but want to get them in order correctly Some connection with Ireland - Black & Tan rebellion - ooops
