My great grandfather was called Albert Potter born around 1900 in Mosley Common. He was married to my great grandmother Mary Watkinson born around 1900 in Tyldesley. They had five children: Nellie, John, Albert, Granvil and Stanley. I need dates of birth for both Albert Potter and Mary Watkinson.

Can anyone help?

Thanx
