I first visited my aunt Kathleen O Donohoe in Frodsham in 1961. She worked for Doctor Dickenson and his family at The Knoll. She had also worked at Creewood Hall before that. I found Frodsham to be a lovely place and the people were so friendly, unlike london where I had gone to do my nurse training. The Dickenson family were very kind and welcoming to me.

We used to go down the rock on our home made trolleys on a Saturday afternoon to the Grand Cinema to watch stuff like; Hoppalong Cassidy, Roy Rogers, Flash Gorden and the Three Stooges. They were the good old days, no street corner yobs and muggers, life was great then, pity it ain't like that now.
I lived in Wallasey and Overton Hill was a popular spot for the annual Sunday School treat (St Hilary's). We travelled on one of those magnificent yellow double decker buses of Wallasey Corporation. The helter skelter was always popular, as were the slot machines in the arcade. It was all a bit old fashioned compared to the funfair on our doorstep in New Brighton but an enjoyable day out all the same.
Is there anyone in Frodsham or the surronding district that were related to the Wharton family in around the 1890's 1900's?
