Granny Ball From 15 Cross Lane

My Granny, Elizabeth Ann Ball, lived at 15 Cross Lane, in Newton le Willows. She was born around 1884 and died 1883 aged 99. She had three children, Monica, Beryl and Jim. She was married to Alfred Ball who died before I was born. I am told he designed something for the railway which if he had patented would have made them some money. I remember the house was at a crossroads, and Mr and Mrs Lyons had a sweet shop over the road, and they were lovely people. I remember there was a fish and chip shop beside them, which sold delicious fish and chips. There was a council yard behind the house and I remember being woken in the morning, by the thunderously loud noise of a steam roller coming out of the yard. There was an Arthur Smith who had a fish shop I think in town, and then had another shop. There was also a pub opposite, I can't recall the name. My sister Moira remembers the Simcocks who lived next door. My Gran did a lot of work for the church and there was a little stained glass window put into All Saints Cof E in her memory. I would love to get to see it soon. Would love to hear from anyone who remembers my Gran, or the family. I am Christine from N. Ireland.
