Susan, there's no point in starting more and more threads about this.

It's all the same people who look at the threads and try to help, no matter which board the thread's on. If you feel one of your earlier threads has slipped too far down the list, you can just nudge it up again, rather than starting a new one.

Old genealogists never die.....they just lose their census.

There are no Manchester papers online for those dates at the British Newspaper Archive.

They only have Manchester Newspapers online upto 1945.

Do you live anywhere near Manchester? because the main library there has actual and on-line access to the Manchester Guardian & Observer which I am sure would cover these dates.

If you don't live nearby, you could perhaps contact them and ask if they could possibly look them up for you. - They may make a small charge.
