William, sorry I cannot remember the Cooksons that you quote, but Arnold Cookson sort of semi rings a bell. I lived at the first house just north of Blackpool Rd, on Shelley, the back garden went down to the canal. During the war we had an Anderton air raid shelter, it was semi underground and dad had built a garden over it, access was thru a sand bagged restricted entrance. When the air raid sirens sounded we used to go to it, close the door ,play games and sleep, we had paraffin lamps and heating stove, it was quite cozy,and we had "barley sugars "too !
I had a relative who lived farther south on Shelley Rd. named Jack Wilson, also friends around there were Maurice Dean, Trevor Cocker,Jimmy Cook and the Jacksons in Balcarres Rd.
