Was born in Stainland, Halifax in 1905. Apparently she trained as a school teacher - I suppose around 1923 ish. is there any way of finding out where/when she trained?? She died 6 weeks after my Mum was born so it's impossible for me to ask any rellies....................Ails x

Someone was offering lookups of Teacher registrations. I'll see if I can find the thread and nudge it for you. Gwyn

If anybody has Origins.net I think they have lists of teachers there. Can somebody check - I don't have it any more. Otherwise, you could approach the National Union of Teachers?

So far she's not turning up on any records but it says on her old passport that she was a teacher..... Strange, isn't it?? Paul - I'll try the NUT but won't hold my breath!! Ails x
