My Grandad was Robert McMahon who lived in Leicester Street with his wife Lizzie he was born in Hebburn and had sisters called Bridget and Lizzie and a brother called Mick. He had other brothers but I only remember his sisters because they came to my mams house to visit when i was about 10
They moved from St Marys Gate to Milton Road in Birkenhead and after being bombed in the Blitz moved to Mellor Road in Prenton, my Gran died before I was born in 56 but I remember my lovely grandad and his Geordie Accent.
i THINK THIS MUST BE THE FAMILY YOU ARE LOOKING FOR
