John Clarence Holmes b 13/02/1912, Haydock, St Helens, d 31/08/1977, Haydock. Looks like his mother was Margaret Holmes and was only 15 when she had him - father unknown at present. Margaret went on to have other children - Robert, Fred, Maud, Margaret (known as Peggy), and Lillian. All these children had the surname Bell. Again all born in the Haydock area. However their fathers name is also unknown at the moment. Until I find someone willing to talk that is!! So if anyone can be of any help I'd be really really grateful, Many Thanks, Lisa Holmes
