Charles Pemberton's Leyland name was David.
I visit his mom Mary Pemberton when I'm in Leyland.
She used to be one of my father's dancing partners
when they were teenagers.

Pam:

We moved to number 7 Church Road from Beech Avenue in 1951, I think. That house had been my Dad's Grandmother's house. After the remodel of Church Road to put the sidewalk in on our side, we sold the house to the doctors who subsequently opened the Sandy Lane Clinic. At the time we sold, the doctors were Dr. Raven and Dr. McDowell - can't remember any others. The upstairs was converted to an apartment, and the clinic receptionist and family lived there.

We moved to Hargreaves Avenue.

Leyland resident 1941-1965, emigrated to the US in 1968,
retired to Anacortes, Washington State, USA in 1999.

Whoa - and you are, David (from a 'magic' point of view)??
I haven't been to a Blackpool convention for SOME years, but they were always enjoyable.
I left the magic scene for a time, became a 'professional' magician working cruises and the like then specialised in children's entertainment and am 'stuck in that rut'.
My early history, however, is Northern - and how!!

Best of,

Hi Bryan .. I asked your Dot some years ago
but she wasn't sure.
I'll ask Mary when I see her in August,
they are an old Leyland family.
Mary's late husband Charlie or Chuck was
the son (I think) of Charlie Pem. ...
he had the newsagents in Chapel Brow
opposite to Louis Thacker's.

Ciao Karen.
