My Dad

My father Alan Clowes died down Askern pit on 20/5/1980. I've looked on lots of websites concerning Askern colliery but I can find no reference to him. I was 13 years old at the time and would like to know more about it. I don't live in Askern any more and would imagine most of the people involved may now have passed. He would now be 77 years old.

RE: RE: My Dad

Hi David, I worked down Askern Colliery for approx 13 years and if I remember rightly your dad was a Pit Deputy.

RE: RE: My Dad

Did you find any further info on your Father at Askern Colliery? Let me know if you require any more info I am sure I can get to know from people still here in the village.
