I remember the original Co-op. There was the clothing department that was quite grand compared to shops these days. There were beautifully polished wooden counters with cabinets at the back of them that homed wooden drawers with items of clothing in them. I remember my friend being measured up for a bra there as well. What I loved the most was the beautiful glass dome that sat above the ceiling. They don't make shops like that anymore.
My "sixth" great grandparents James Norfolk and Mary Wilson were married in St Peter's Church at Birstall. This was on 3rd September 1690. If any other person following up family history at this parish has a connection with either of these two 6 X great grandparents I would be very pleased to hear from you. I also seek a copy of any painting or print of the church as it may have appeared before modern rebuilding and welcome any suggestions on where to find this please.
