And his fathers name was Patrick. She was born 1899 in Dunston, Whickham Durham and died in 1929. He was a miner living in Catchgate Annfield Plain, Durham at time of marriage. I can't go back nor forwards regarding John, before the marriage nor after her death. My father Patrick (Patsy) Healey was born 1920 at 19 Red Row, Stanley. I believe he was raised by a mining family who took him in about 12 around Coniston nr. Doncaster. Member of the family was Billy who I believe went blind in later life, who was about 12 in 1930. My Dad went to school in the area and became a miner himself. He left after being threatened with prison for organising a strike. Any glimmer of information would be gratefully received.
