I'm looking for relatives of my maternal Grandad, NORMAN HIGH ( 1914-1962)::
with connections to Ashton under Lyne (mainly Dukinfield and Hyde/possibly Stockport/ Cheshire

My grandma ELIZABETH HOLT married my grandad NORMAN HIGH in 1941 in Hyde, Cheshire
My mum VIVIENNE LESLEY HIGH (born 23/4/1947 - 22/11/1993 was their only daughter, she went to ASTLEY GRAMMAR SCHOOL in Dukinfield
They lived on possibly Astley Street Dukinfield when my mum was younger, then Inverness Road Dukinfield

My grandma had a sister MARY HOLT (married name MARY DUROSE), she lived on Brunswick street Dukinfield near the Town Hall

My grandma had a paper shop in the early 70s on the corner near the white bridge Dukinfield with my uncle Frank (FRANK FIRTH there are links to Yorkshire but I'm not sure exactly where on Franks side
