Looking for any relatives of Mary Agnes Mitchell.Born 1892 in Oldham.Married? Harold Brierley. havnt found date of marraige as yet.She died at the age of 38 in 1930 in Salford and her children were taken into care,one of them being my father,James Francis Brierley,William?,Leo,Harold and Herbert.They went into Buckley Hall orphanage in Rochdale but were not adopted and I have confirmation that all of them were there apart from William who I have yet to look for.Their ages would be in the late 70s to 80s now.If you have any leads however small please make contact,even a relative who was in Buckley Hall and can remember them. Mary has to be in someones tree cos by all accounts she left her family to be with Harold.Thanks all you genies!! cos this is gonna take magic to sort!!
