Hi Noel, Was your wifes father Walter Iddon who worked at the BTR till he retired and also had a son Frank, he lived off Leyland lane I think and died in 1977, this Walter Iddon was a good friend of our family.
That's right Sandra, he lived down Dunkirk Lane and had a son Brian and daughter Margaret. He worked at BTR for 49 years before he was made redundant.
Ray I don't think it would be the same Walter, he was born in 1907 his wife was Annie and to the best of my knowledge they lived in Dunkirk Lane for a long time. They never mentioned any family except I do remember seeing an Aunt Polly from time to time.
