Of cause i could have totally the wrong family here but looks good.

It is worth checking on these two site for any you think could be yours?

http://www.burialrecords.manchester.gov.uk/

There are a fair few "Hallam's " on the tameside site too as it is only up the road from Gorton & Openshaw area, and there site is totally free too

Let me know how you go on or if any of the above are correct to fitting in with your family.

Thank you for you time and help 

I have just had a quick look on the Manchester burial site and looked at the Gorton cem and i think i have just found one of there children
Clara Hallam  Grave 355 buried 31/5/1947 on her own, i have her as being born 1891 so that makes her 56 when she died  Hmmmmmmmmmm

i do remember the family saying something about an Aunty Ada but hadn't come across her  well untill now

Cheers Migky

This Clara Hallam was aged 74 when she was buried 31/5/1947 in the N/C section plot  H355 - also note this was a grave reopening so someone else is in it.

Who?

Seems to be a fault with the burials website

Working on that you have a " Lowe " married in your family, i don't think that the Joseph you have there is the right one. I mean the one marrying in 1928 as he died in the first world war.  As you will see from the army service papers i sent you it list him as dead and list all the other family members including your "Lowe" .

Just sent you his medal card and it says he died 23/06/1916
William claimed his medals and gives you another address to check out.
